Skill Level Information
You MUST provide Skill Level information for every child that participates in a lesson program so that we can place them in a group of children of similar ability.  Please go to My Account and under Skier/Snowboarder Profile enter a ski or snowboard skill level for each child (see below to determine skill level).  The information may already be on file.  Please make sure it is an honest and accurate assessment of their current abilities.  Thank you!
