Choosing the right Ski and Snowboard Program
As the winter rolls around we cant help to think about what our kids will be doing this coming winter. Choosing the right ski and snowboard program this winter can be a big challenge for many of us. The best way to choose the right program is to look to consider the following items.
Location
The first challenge for choosing the right program is its proximity to home. There are various drop off programs through out the GTA, but the down fall to this is they sell out within minutes of being listed on line. The other issue is that local hills in the GTA do not have the same snow making capabilities as resorts like Mount St.Louis Moonstone.
If none of the local programs in your area work, you might want to look into bussing options like Evolve Snow Camps. Our program offers pick up locations all over the GTA including Markham, Thornhill, Beach, Missisauga, North York, Richmond Hill, King city and more.
Ski and Snowboard Lessons
When choosing the program make sure that the lessons are long enough. Programs that are private are usually 1-2 hours long, which does not give the kids a lot of time on the snow. Look for full day programs. More time on the snow means you will learn more!
Rental Program
Some programs offer a ski and snowboard rental program. This is always a good options to consider, however you can also purchase in-expensive ski and snowboard equipment before the season starts.
Price
Look for a program that suits your budget. Before you sign up consider the cost of buying outerwear, safety gear, skis or snowboards, goggles etc.
