Event Details
Registration is now closed. We will update here if we open individual tickets for March 2nd/3rd weekend. These would be for those who have skied or snowboarded at least once before. If you are interested in these please email [email protected] to be added to a waitlist.
This event is for 18+ BIPOC only. Please buy only one ticket or bundle for yourself rather than buying in bulk to allow for more of the community to participate.
We are hosting ski and snowboard lessons for the first time in Ontario! In partnership with Blue Mountain, we will be hosting private lessons on February 10th & 11th and March 2nd & 3rd. There will be 10 spots for skiiers and 10 spots for snowboarders on each day.
The lesson package will include a lift ticket, rentals, self-learn system, and a 90 minute beginner group lesson, plus a Play All Day ticket with access to 5 attractions – Ridge Runner, Hike’n tube, Woodview skating ($10 rentals available), snowshoe trail access ($10 rentals available) and Plunge! Aquatic Center – that is valid for the full day of the lesson.
Lift tickets and rentals will be valid only for the duration of the lesson. This is why the Play All Day pass is included so you can take advantage of the other activities after making the trip to Blue.
