Brundage Mountain Resort is gearing up for its most exciting Spring Break yet by offering fun on-snow events and two chances for Kids 17 & under to ski for free.

Many nearby public schools have Spring Break vacations scheduled from March 26-March 30, 2012. Brundage Mountain is hosting family-friendly events on the weekends before and after that Spring Break period.

“We’re concentrating on the weekends, because we know that even when kids are out of school, their parents may have to work,” said resort spokesperson, April Russell. “We’re planning our most popular events on days when the whole family can be here to enjoy them together.”

Events include:

Saturday, March 24 – O-Wimp-Ic Games – Free to anyone purchasing a day ticket or season pass. Our challenge course on Jammer is sure to entertain kids of all ages as they navigate through curves, tunnels and other feats of skill like the snowball toss and hula hoop course. More Details

Sunday, March 25 – Gimme A Break Day – Kids 17 & under are treated to FREE lift tickets.

Saturday, March 31 – Pond Skimming & Crazy Daze – Our annual “Spring Fling” event is the ultimate on-snow costume contest and slope side spectacle!

Festivities run all day long with Pond Skimming at 1 pm and live music in the afternoon. More Details.

Sunday, April 1 – Celebrate Family Day – Moms & Kids 17 & under are treated to FREE lift tickets.

Brundage is also expanding mid-week services to accommodate Spring Break visitors. The cafeteria on the 3^rd floor will be open seven days a week from March 15 – April 2 to offer extra options for family dining mid-week. Smoky’s Bar & Grill is open every day during the ski season.

Brundage Mountain plans to operate seven days a week through April 8th. As in recent years, the ski area will add as many “Bonus Weekends” as possible, operating Saturdays and Sundays beyond that date as long as snow conditions allow.
