February Vacation Week Activity Guide

It's almost that time of year again: February vacation is just around the corner, and at Sugarloaf, that means attendance is optional (though highly recommended to avoid that ill-fated FOMO), pajamas are encouraged, and recess never ends.

For those planning to spend it slope-side, get stoked to experience peak-season conditions paired with non-stop family-friendly entertainment all week long–plus, with some very special 21 and up events, there's sure to be something to do for everyone in your crew.
