Kid-O-Rama

Squaw Valley/Alpine Meadows

Saturday, February 17th – Saturday, February 24

It’s good to be a kid at Squaw Valley/Alpine Meadows for President’s week.  Kid-O-Rama is a week of non-stop fun for kids of all ages.  Squaw will attract families with activities like the sky jump trampolines, the climbing wall in the tram building, mini snowmobiles and snow tubing at SnoVentures, a pool and hot tub perched atop the mountain at 8200 feet and lots of Olympic viewing in between.
  

The fun will be super-sized as Kid-O-Rama takes over.  Every day in the Village there will be a kids game and craft room open from 10am to 9pm featuring activities like ping pong, art projects, and ski movies with popcorn.

Each weekend day ends with live music on the Village stage and the Plaza Bar.  On the 17th, 18th and 24th, the night will end with a fireworks show over the  iconic KT-22 slopes.   Stay warm with a complimentary hot cocoa bar for the kids and full food and beverage menu for the whole family.  It is sure to be a good week to be outside and enjoying all the outdoor fun that Kid-o-Rama and Squaw Valley/Alpine Meadows are hosting.  

The highlight of the week will be Big Truck Day on Saturday, February 17th at Squaw Valley and Tuesday, February 20th at Alpine Meadows.  Big machinery like snow groomers, snowmobiles, fire trucks and snow plows will gather at the bottom of the mountain base areas.  The big trucks will be on display all day for viewing and kids can sit in many of the vehicles and see just how big they really are.  

  

New this year is Disco Tubing at the SnoVentures Activity Zone at Squaw Valley.  Every night throughout the week night tubing will be rocking the back of the parking lot.  Sledding after hours with colorful LED lights, lasers and live DJ’s is sure to be a blast.

Big Truck Day

One of the best days of the year for young boys and girls is coming up this weekend.  The highly anticipated 8th Annual Big Truck Day is taking over the Town Corp Yard located off of Donner Pass Road, just north of downtown on Stockrest Springs Road. The town has gathered a fleet of large machinery for the event including a plow, groomer, crane, school bus, fire engine, police car, helicopter, ambulance, digger, dump truck, police car and much more.  Kids get the chance to get up close, sit in the drivers seat, honk horns, pull levers and learn all about these large working machines.  

Make sure the kids wear clothes that can get dirty, because they won't want to miss the giant sand hill that is in one of the huge garages. Kids can spend hours climbing up and rolling down this massive pile of fun.

The Truckee Lions Club is providing a BBQ lunch, a bake sale full of delicious treats and music by local bands.  Smokey the Bear will also be on site for photos, high fives, handshakes and fire prevention tips. Big Truck Day is an event that the kids look forward to all year, hope to see you there.
