Every Friday through Sunday throughout the 2019 holiday season, all Alpine Shop locations (including The Pathfinder in Manhattan, Kan.) celebrate “Customer Appreciation Weekends.”
Drinks and snacks… courtesy of all Alpine Shop locations this holiday season.
If you’re new to this, let us answer the question: “Just what exactly does a “Customer Appreciation Weekend” entail?”
It means FREE beer, wine, coffee, tea, soft drinks and water. It also means FREE snacks. While you’re shopping. FREE drinks and snacks. While you shop. During the holiday weekends.
Clear enough?
Not everyone likes heading out on their weekends to shop this time of year. And then there are those that love to shop this time of year. But one thing we’re pretty sure of: Everyone loves FREE drinks and snacks while they’re shopping.
We’re just trying to make it easier – and more enjoyable – for everyone.
It’s just our way of saying “Thanks” for continuing to support local businesses and continuing to shop with us at Alpine Shop and The Pathfinder

It’s the 2019 Women’s Ski & Board Night and it’s only at Alpine Shop Kirkwood on November 15, 2019!
Since we held our first coat drive back in 2006, Alpine Shop customers have donated over 16,000 coats to help keep our communities warm. This year, we’re asking for your help, once again, in bringing in at least a thousand more as Alpine Shop kicks off its 14th annual One Warm Coat Drive on Friday, November 15, 2019 at all Alpine Shop locations in Missouri and at The Pathfinder in Manhattan, Kansas.
How It Works
From Friday, Nov. 15 through Wednesday, Nov. 27, we’ll accept clean, gently-used coats, jackets and sweaters at each and every Alpine Shop location.
• Just for bringing in a garment, we’ll give you a $25 off coupon for your next full-price purchase of $125 or more at any Alpine Shop store. (Some exclusions apply. See a sales associate for details.)
• Plus, we’re also giving away four $250 Alpine Shop Gift Cards – one for each of our stores. For each and every coat or sweater you donate, you get one entry into that drawing. Here’s the deal, though… we only draw the gift cards when we reach our goal of 1000 total coats donated across all of our stores. And each Alpine Shop location must collect at least 100 coats to be eligible to give away a gift card. So, help your local Alpine Shop out!
NOTE: Alpine Shop will only give away one coupon to each customer during the coat drive no matter how many different coats you donate. However, each item donated will still earn one entry into the gift card drawing.
How to Donate
Alpine Shop has made donating simple. Just bring your clean, gently used coats, jackets and sweaters to any Alpine Shop location. Bring your coats inside the store and check them in with one of the store’s outfitters to make sure you receive your coupon and get entered into the drawing. Then, Alpine Shop and One Warm Coat take care of the rest.
In November of 2018, Alpine Shop customers brought in nearly 1300 coats in just over 10 days.
Last year, we managed to beat our goal once again. We hope you can help us do the same in 2019!

If you’ve ever hit the slopes on your board and wished – just once – that you didn’t have to sit down or bend down to strap your boots into your bindings… well, Burton may just be your genie.
Introducing Step-On from Burton.
Step-On from Burton
Offering hands-free convenience that’s easier for beginners along with remarkable performance for the best pros, Step On is a game changer for anyone interested in riding the mountain.
Step On & Go – Simplified for Beginners
Ready to Send – Trusted by Pros
How Step On Works
Burton’s Step On Boots and Bindings are sold together to make sure you have the necessary hardware for the system to work properly. Besides that, the system works much like the traditional strap and buckle system has worked for years. Instead of straps, though, there are three connection points on your boots that connect directly into the binding. Meaning, you can ride as hard as you like; your boots won’t release unless you want them to and as long as you’ve dialed your fit into your boots (as only a certified outfitter like Alpine Shop can do), you have the best transfer of movement from your body to your board.
So, like we said, it’s easier for beginners. Just step in. No need to sit on the snow and connect your straps.
And, like we also said, it’s ready for the best of the best.

Back in 2011, Alpine Shop was one of the first retailers to sign on to assist SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital with their new “Glennon Card” promotion. Little did we know then just how big this would promotion grow!
When you purchase a Glennon Card – either at Alpine Shop, on on-line at www.glennoncard.org, 100% of your money benefits the kids cared for by SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital in St. Louis. Plus, the Glennon Card also provides you with significant discounts at over 345 retailers, restaurants and salons in the area (including Alpine Shop!) through this Sunday, October 27. With unlimited use for 10 days, it’s easy to recoup the cost of the card. Best of all, 100% of card sales benefit the kids.
Here’s how it works: You can purchase a Digital Glennon Card on-line here for $50 and use it all participating merchants, or if you would prefer a paper version, you can grab one for $60 at any Alpine Shop retail location now through Oct. 27. Either way, you’ll receive a 20% discount on nearly everything in our stores* with the main exception being a 10% discount on full-priced bikes, boats or snowsport hardgoods.
Alpine Shop is proud to have been the top Local Merchant for Glennon Card sales in 2017 & 2018 and hope to remain the same for 2019. Please come in and purchase your Card anytime between now and Sunday, Oct. 27, or be sure to select Alpine Shop as how you heard about the Glennon Card at the on-line checkout here.
2019 GLENNON CARD RULES AND EXCLUSIONS:
Card sharing is strictly prohibited. Since the Glennon Card is a fundraising event to help the sick and injured children cared for at SSM Health Cardinal Glennon, we encourage shoppers to buy their own Glennon Card! Participating retailers will not accept cards unless purchaser has been verified with a valid photo ID.
*20% off promotion applies to the retail price on in-store apparel, footwear and camping gear only and is not eligible to be combined with other promotions or offers, except for clearance goods (marked with $_.97 pricing) which will be discounted from the lowest-marked price. Hardgoods such as bikes, boats and ski & snowsport hardgoods receive a 10% off discount. Online and Special Order items are not eligible.
Select brands and items are excluded. Please see an Alpine Shop outfitter for details.
Alpine Shop, STANLEY, and Schlafly invite you back to Alpine Shop’s Kirkwood location on Thursday, September 19 for the latest edition of the 2019 Schalfly Al-Pint Night Series.
This event will benefit the SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital by serving as a kickoff for the 2019 Glennon Card fundraiser! The Glennon Card is a unique, 10-day discount shopping program (October 18–27) organized by the SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Foundation and the Glennon Guild, a 350 member women’s organization serving the children cared for by SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital. Alpine Shop has been a proud partner of this event for the past eight years.
As we’ve done at all of the 2019 Al-Pint Nights, you can purchase a reusable STANLEY Adventure Stein for $25 and enjoy two free Schalfly pours at this Al-pint night – and at all remaining 2019 pint nights(!)–or buy a custom plastic cup for $5 and enjoy two beers. (Or if you’ve already purchased your Adventure Stein for the year, simply show up and enjoy your two beers!) As this event benefits a children’s organization, we will also be sure to feature plenty of non-alcoholic beverages, as well.
2019 Re-Usable STANELY Adventure Steins – available for just $25 – and you can bring it back for two free beers at each remaining Schlalfy Al-Pint Night the rest of the year.
Here’s How the Glennon Card Works:
An individual purchases a Glennon Card which entitles the cardholder to a 20% discount on regularly priced merchandise at more than 345 participating stores, salons and restaurants for the 10-day shopping period of October 18-27. 100% of card sales benefit the kids cared for by SSM Health Cardinal Glennon.
