Mt Ellen Sunday Blazers
Welcome to the Blazer community at Sugarbush! Generations of devoted skiers and their families have found a home in the Blazer program over the decades, and there’s still no better way for kids to grow into confident all-mountain skiers in New England’s best winter playground. Mt. Ellen Blazers keep that tradition going, with a style all their own.
This Sunday-only program is designed for skiers ages 6-12 who are confidently turning on blue terrain and able to ride the lift independently. With a smaller group size and a more local vibe, Mt. Ellen Blazers offers a simplified but equally adventurous version of the Blazer experience. It's a great fit for Vermont families who want the consistency of a weekend program but prefer to ski as a family on Saturdays or can only commit one day a week.
With a strong focus on progression, camaraderie, and all-mountain exploration, Mt. Ellen Blazers develop skills in terrain parks, bumps, glades and groomers - depending on group level, snow conditions and goals. Coaches work with the same group of kids each week to build trust, refine technique and encourage personal growth on and off the slopes.
