Theme Skate Night at Big Sky Town Center - Toga! Toga!
Town Center Skating Rink

The community ice skating rink is up and running at Fire Pit Park in the Big Sky Town Center and this year we are adding themed skating nights. Join us every Friday night, January 22 through February 26 starting at 6:30pm for a fun-filled evening of great music and even greater laughs.

Inspire the inner god or goddess within and join us for a greek bash!
The hardest part of a toga party is the "toga" part. No one knows what to wear, how to wear it, or where the outfit stops and they begin. Here are a few tips:
1.Sheets aren’t the best choice (especially used sheets—yuck!).
2.You will need 4-5 yards of fabric per toga, so find a local fabric store and go crazy.
3.Be creative and pick a fabric that screams your personality. It can be a solid color or have your favorite licensed character dancing across it. That’s up to you!
4.Once you have your fabric, you’re ready to do the "wrap." Wrap around your waist several times and then throw the remainder over either shoulder covering your chest (you choose). Take the fabric hanging off your shoulder and bring it around your back to your waist and tie it off. You can choose to go bare shouldered or to wear some type of "t" underneath.
5.Accessorize with leather straps (to match your sandals), gold chains, jewelry, ivy covered wire for your headdress, gold belting.

Spring Run-Off is back by popular demand. Big Sky Resort will once again design a 100-foot pond filled with water that skiers and snowboarders will navigate and skim across or in some cases, directly into. Great fun for an end of the season event that will also feature live music, drink and food specials, and an after party.
