Sugarloaf Maine

Snowmakers’ Ball is Sugarloaf’s chance to Thank the People who Make It Happen!

by

 The first one was in 1983 after a season that was slim on help from Mother Nature much like this year; the next one is coming right up on April 6, with extra kudos due snowmakers & groomers without whom we’d be mowing the grass early this spring like our neighbors down south!

Irreverance is our specialty! Not for those easily offended by questionable behavior, hahaha…

1984 was the year this video was part of the fun at the Snowmakers’ Ball……………….. remember shooting & editing this video like it was yesterday, finishing it as the Party had already begun……

Work hard; play hard, too, is how we do it at Sugarloaf!
Thanks to all the Mtn Ops crews; we DO love you!!!!!!
