If you need to make changes to your booking, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to accommodate the changes due to limited our number of instructors and rental gear Please contact us and we will do our best to make things work!
Do we have to go through this program to access the hill with our students?
Why are we limited with how many students can attend the mandatory first lesson?
We have limited instructor availability on Thursdays and Fridays. We will do our best to accommodate as many students as possible while staying within our safety ratios. The best way to get in is to give us advanced notice with a completed registration form.
We are a school from one of the communities and can't make it on a Friday. Can we still participate in this program?
We understand that not everyone is able to make it on Thursdays or Fridays. If you are a school who would like to access the hill outside of regular school hours, please contact us to make special arrangements.
