Family Tournament
January 4, 2026 @ 9:00 am - 3:00 pm
The Family Tournament originated as the Father-Son race and dates back to 1942 when it was originally held on the flanks of Mount Mansfield (Stowe). In its modern form, it is a race open to anyone who wants to participate. Racers complete a family-friendly GS course where a racer’s best time from two runs (attempts) is counted. The time is then added together with other family members (by blood relationship) in the following categories and prizes are awarded. In some cases, there are coveted trophies that live permanently at MRG for all to admire.
All racers should register in the MRG Online Store.
Family Tournament Race Schedule:
9:00 am – 10:00 am: course inspection/preview
10:00 am: Racing opens to anyone 7 years and under and all grandparents
10:30 am: Racing opens to all (FIFO)
