FAC (Friday Afternoon Club) happens at the top of Vail Mountain during summer. Parking is free in the summer (park at Lionshead) and the gondola is free after 4:00pm on Fridays. The ride is beautiful with views of the Vail Valley and the Gore Range.
At the top you are greeted with $2 beers and $3 burgers/hot dogs. Folks, things in Vail just don't get less expensive. The views from the top are great and you can walk out to the wedding deck for a great sunset view over the Holy Cross Wilderness.
Live music is usually pretty good. Volleyball, horseshoes for older "kids" and bungee trampolines for younger kids.
Family friendly, but still a great time for a group of grown up friends just trying to kick off a weekend in Vail. Heck, I'm a local and I even love it!
