Trombone Shorty

Grooved to the amazing music of Trombone Shorty and Orleans Avenue, Tuesday evening at Higher Ground in Burlington,VT.  What a tight band!
Amazing positive energy, so in sync with each other, and it looked like they had as much fun as the audience had. I couldn't listen without swaying and bobbing. When they come to your town, see them.

Learn to Ski and Snowboard Month

Here in Vermont, we have some of the best instructors in the world, and plenty of terrain for those starting out. Learn to ski and ride month isn't only for those who have never been on snow before. You too can learn a new snow sport through Learn to Ski and Snowboard month. Ski Vermont is once again offering a $29 package for beginners including a beginner area lift ticket, lesson and rental in January 2014.

What's the Deal?

In the spirit of spreading the love of winter to new enthusiasts, the majority of our member resorts will be offering $29 beginner lesson during the month of January, excluding Holiday periods. The beginner package includes equipment rental as well as a lesson with a professional instructor (lesson duration varies by resort) and access to the beginner terrain. Due to the deeply discounted price, we will only offer one beginner package per person.
These packages are for BEGINNERS ONLY.
