The village of Rosemont has  approved an agreement with a company to literally build a 35 to 40-ft. high snow mountain in mid-December that will allow people to slide down its 250-ft. length while riding a tube.

The deal will result in the hiring of Stack Box Structures, a company that uses shipping containers, to erect “Mount Rosemont” as it may or may not eventually be called. The mountain will be located in the village’s entertainment district, MB Financial Park at Rosemont, right in front of the Hofbrauhaus German beer hall.

This is just the latest in a growing list of attractions that will bring people to Rosemont to dine, ice skate, drink, shop, bowl, laugh, and enjoy the sensation of skydiving…
