Baja MX Partners with Soaring Eagle to Host Winter Action Sports Event

Millington, MI – January 14, 2009 – Pat Grzebinski, owner of popular Michigan Motocross track Baja MX, has teamed up with Soaring Eagle Casino and Resort to host the area’s first Winter Action Sports Event. The Event will be held at the beautiful Soaring Eagle Casino and Resort in Mount Pleasant, Michigan on Valentine’s Day weekend, February 14th and 15th, 2009.


While Baja MX has traditionally been known for hosting such creative motocross events as the Baja Brawl and Monster Mash, as well as various area and regional qualifiers for Loretta Lynn hopefuls, owner Pat Grzebinski recently decided to venture into a different kind of action sports entertainment as the snow began to fall in Central Michigan. With a partnership that may be the first of its kind, Baja MX and Soaring Eagle Casino and Resort have decided to host the area’s first ever winter action sports event.


The “Freeze X Fest” event will be a combination of 3 separate venues to be run during the holiday of Valentine’s and President’s Day weekend. The $10,000 AMA Ice Racing Grand Championships will be complimented by a $3,000 USASA Snowboard Rail Jam event, and a Freestyle Snocross show featuring Jimmy Blaze and company.


“The Baja team is really excited to be part of this event, and come Valentines Day, we know that the athletes and fans will be too”, says Pat.


Pat also added that with the steady decline in the economy, athletes and their families deserve more than just the racing and snowboard competition, they deserve to have a lot of fun too, which is why he sought out the help of Soaring Eagle Casino and Resort. Along with the 3 featured events, spectators will enjoy: Hospitality and giveaways from event sponsors, an interactive Public Snow Luge, and other forms of live entertainment and special guests. Moreover, Yamaha will be on hand with a variety of new 2009 Snowmobiles for guests to hop on and ride around a huge rolling snow course. All this and more can be seen from Soaring Eagle’s beautiful Casino and Resort, just a few hundred feet away.


“Soaring Eagle is happy to have Pat’s experience in providing quality entertainment for racers, families, and fans alike, and we’re honored to host such an exciting event”, says Bill Masterson, Executive Director of Marketing, Sales and Entertainment.


Regarded as the largest Casino and Resort in the Midwest, Soaring Eagle’s exceptional facilities will provide a great location for anyone who attends. A neighboring field of 50+ acres and a huge snow hill will more than accommodate the weekend’s venues. Moreover, with a variety of over 500 rooms and suites, fine dinning and buffets, a huge gaming area, “Kid Quest” child care, and more, racers and their families will have all the fun they can handle, both day and night.
