Mini Mites
ages 3 to 5 years for skiing and snowboarding
Our Mini Mites offers your child 8 days of our award-winning Discovery Dynamos camp program on either Saturdays or Sundays. Our specially trained instructors encourage skiing or snowboarding development for all abilities and build confidence through innovative teaching techniques.
NEW this year — We've teamed with Vermont's Burton Snowboards to develop the next generation of the Burton Riglet Park, an on-snow play area on the Resort’s Sir Henry’s Learning Hill with fun terrain features designed for introducing young children to snowboarding. The park’s focal point is a “treehouse,” an elevated platform with ramps that children can ride down, a balance area inside the treehouse and a lift chair that swings to help kids practice getting on and off the lift. Playing in the park on small rolling hills, miniature box-style rails, pyramids and a mini-halfpipe allows children to gain the necessary balance and muscle memory to begin sliding and making turns on sloped terrain.
Each day the program starts at 9:00 am, includes lunch, and runs until 4:00 pm, with an indoor entertainment program offered during the last two hours being day.
Saturday session starts January 7, 2012
$499 for the season, or $549 including equipment lease. (Excludes 1/14/12 & 2/18/12)
Sunday session starts January 8, 2012
$499 for the season, or $549 including equipment lease. (Excludes 1/15/12 & 2/19/12)

Smugglers' Notch 55+ Club
For seniors on the hill, not over the hill!
Now in its 20th year, Smugglers 55+ Club is for seniors who like to ski (alpine or nordic), snowboard, & snowshoe, and enjoy being with their peers. Non-skiers are welcome, too. Our goal is simple: get out of the four walls, break the daily routine, meet people and be active.
We start with a brief organizational meeting, coffee and rolls, and then we head out to the trails in self-selected ability groups. We then have an afternoon program starting at 2:00 pm which is usually, but not always, indoors. We also gather informally throughout the Summer for a wide variety of outdoor activities. Membership benefits also include various discounts at Smuggs.
Meetings: 9:00 am on Wednesdays at the Village Lodge starting the first Wednesday in December.
Membership: $25/year (Your first meeting is complementary – come and check us out!)
You can register for any of these programs on our Season Passes & Bash Badges page, or call the Ski & Ride Division at 1-800-523-2754.
