Take a break and head to the islands during Jazz Aspen/Snowmas

Here is the latest press release from Snowmass Village regarding Jazz Aspen Snowmass:

(Snowmass Village, CO) If you're looking to escape the crowds and commotion of Jazz Aspen Snowmass' celebration for a little while, considering heading over to Snowmass, which is easily accessible via car or public transportation and boasts a serene mountain retreat with a special one-day tropical celebration on Saturday, June 24.

"Snowmass Village and the Parrot Head Block Party offers a relaxing break away from the crowds," says Snowmass Village Marketing Director Susan Hamley. "You can easily take the public transportation buses here for mountain biking, hiking, on-mountain activities and fun at the block party. It's an ideal combination."

The Parrot Head Block Party summons the spirit of Jimmy Buffet with reggae tunes and tropical themes. The mall will be transformed into an island getaway, complete with volleyball and horseshoe games and beach balls. Jammin' Jim will be on-hand to amuse the kids, while Chicago's award-winning reggae band Gizzae plays at 1 p.m. Collectively, the group has over 100 years of music experience, and 4 Grammy Awards individually playing with the likes of The Rolling Stones, Bruce Springsteen, Ziggy Marley, Carly Simon and others. In addition to music, restaurants and bars will be offering special drink and food discounts.
