The action continues on Sunday with the newly formed Grom Bomb event to take place at the Mini Stash on Ramshead.

The resort is offering volunteers a free lift ticket to Killington/Pico for every shift they work. Lift tickets earned are valid one year from the date they are received. Lunch will be provided for each shift worked. Volunteers must be 18 years of age or older.
