Families and Lower School Students Attending Bromley
We welcome families to join the Bromley Trip! Lower School students who wish to attend must be accompanied by a parent. Families can be added to the discounted ticket list by completing this form. When you arrive at Bromley you will pick up tickets from the guest services window and pay Bromley Mountain.
We recommend that families stay at the Kimpton Taconic Hotel in Manchester VT which is 9 miles from the mountain. If families are interested in staying with the Rumsey student group at the Lodge at Bromley they should email bromley@zz-tre.com. The Lodge at Bromley is primarily for the students and faculty and the energy is more like a large dorm than a hotel.
