Micro Blazers
Welcome to the first chapter of the Blazer journey... Micro Blazers is where it all begins! Designed for 3- and 4-year-old skiers, this weekend program introduces little ones to the joy of snow, the basics of skiing and the magic of the mountains in a safe, playful and supportive environment. For families who want skiing to become a lifelong passion, this is the best way to start.
With small groups, patient instructors and a gentle pace, Micro Blazers blends on-snow fun with indoor play, gear familiarity and social connection. Kids build confidence through repetition and encouragement: learning to turn, stop, ride the lift and explore new terrain when they’re ready. Lunch, breaks and a cozy home base help make long winter days feel just right for growing skiers. Best of all? They’ll make new friends and unforgettable memories, all while developing a true sense of belonging in the Blazer community.
This foundational experience fosters independence, joy and a love of learning, plus the early skills that set kids up for success in Mini Blazers and beyond. Stamina, behavior and energy levels will guide daily progress, and children must be potty trained to participate. Attendance during the first weekends is especially important for group bonding and setting routines that last all season long. No experience needed... just a big appetite for fun!

What is the Sunday Add-On?
The Sunday Add-On is available for select Sunday programs and gives your child a second day of coaching each weekend. It’s a great way to build skills faster and get more time with their group and coach. Availability varies by program.Where do we meet on program days?
Detailed check-in instructions will be emailed before the season begins.How are you groups determined?
The first two weeks of the season are crucial. Coaches evaluate each child’s ability, comfort and personality to build balanced groups that support learning and fun. Groups may shift slightly early in the season to ensure the best fit for everyone.What if we miss a day?
We’re unable to offer make-up sessions or refunds for missed days due to weather, illness or other conflicts. Every weekend is unique, and our coaches do their best to keep the group progressing even when someone is out.What happens in bad weather?
Seasonal programs run in most conditions... snow, sleet or shine! Make sure to pack and dress appropriately. We monitor forecasts closely, and in the rare case of extreme weather or dangerous travel, we’ll notify families.My child is just learning. Is there a program for them?
Yes! Micro Blazers and Mini Blazers may be a great fit depending on age and comfort on snow. If your child is brand new to skiing or riding, we also recommend our Schoolhouse Programs, which are designed for first-timers and early learners. -

Sunday Add-On Program
Introducing the Seasonal Sunday Add-on program. This add-on is designed to keep the fun going after the Blazers program wraps up at noon on Sundays. Your kiddos will get an extra hour and a half out on the hill with a group of like-minded skiers/riders and an instructor. Groups will be formed based on age and ability level. With a different instructor from the morning session, you'll get a fresh perspective and new techniques to learn. Refine skills and explore different parts of the mountain to apply them in varied conditions. The goal of the add on program is to help you enhance your skiing abilities, experience new terrain, and make new friends, while giving families the opportunity for the full Sugarbush experience on weekends during our programs. As always, please make sure to have all necessary equipment and appropriate clothing for extended time on the slopes.
Details- Participants eat lunch with their Sunday add-on group at their typical Blazer lunch location. Parents do not need to check in.
- Micro Blazer lunch is included
- Pickup locations on Sunday afternoons do not change
