Calling all kids for the Glow Worm Parade! This New Years' tradition substitutes glow sticks for torch lights. All children are welcome to participate & no sign-up needed. We will load the Sweetwater Gondola from 4:30-5:15 and the parade will start at 5:30pm. Kids will finish at the base of Sweetwater Gondola. Come dressed in skis and boots (no poles please). Participation is free and parents are not required to accompany skiers but are welcome to join.
The Torchlight Parade (MSS Staff only) will begin shortly after the Glow Worm parade reaches the base of Sweetwater Gondola, at approximately 6pm, and fireworks will follow. Ring in the New Year in classic JHMR tradition!
Things to do with the whole family!
Be prepared for your day on the mountain!
