Families come first at Mount Snow Resort in Southern Vermont where family friendly activities, deals and amenities are available every day of the winter season including ski and snowboard lessons for kids as young as three years, a 100 acre playground over at Carinthia with terrain park features for all ability levels, eleven lanes of snow tubing, movie nights and so much more. The popular resort also offers kids-only events like the Grommet Jam Series, which is held three times throughout the winter for kids age 12 and under and includes an hour of instruction from Mount Snow’s freestyle coaches followed by a friendly jam session competition where the young ones have the opportunity to win great prizes courtesy of sponsors like Contour, Neff, Smith Optics, Oakley and Rome.
On Sunday, January 8 Mount Snow is holding its annual Youth Pay Their Age Day when kids ages 6-18 pay their age for a lift ticket. Simply put, a 14 year old pays $14 for their lift ticket on that day.
Mount Snow holds three Kids Ski Free Weeks (January 15-20, February 26 – March 2 and March 4-9, 2012) during which kids ages 4-12 years old get free 3,4 or 5 day lift tickets and half-day lessons when their folks purchase a 3-5 day lift and lodging package.
