“Every year, we see people and adventure shoppers travel from all over the country just for this one-day Winter and Ski Event, because they know they will find unbeatable prices on high-quality, name-brand winter sports equipment and clothing,” said Unclaimed Baggage Center’s media spokesperson Brenda Cantrell. “Last year’s event drew more than 5,000 shoppers from 35 states, and we expect to see even more outdoor enthusiasts this year.”

The 30th Anniversary Winter and Ski Event will offer top brands such as North Face, Columbia, Spyder, Black Diamond, Obermeyer, Xposure, Salomon, Polartec and Patagonia.

Unclaimed Baggage Center doors will open November 5th at 7 a.m. with shopping beginning at 8 a.m. As in previous years, the Unclaimed Baggage Center will permit shoppers to camp in the parking lot prior to the doors opening.

“This is an event that many individuals anticipate all year long,” said Cantrell. “We look forward to seeing the veteran shoppers – some of whom have attended 20 years and more – and hope that those who have never before experienced the Winter and Ski Event will also come out to see what we have to offer.”
