Local Kids Learn to Ski FREE for Spring Break

Kids ages 7-14 from Valley County, Adams County & Riggins School District can sign up for a full-day ski experience Wednesday, March 25 through Friday March 27, 2020.

This special Learn to Ski Deal is open to 25 youth per day and includes a 90 minute ski lesson, rental gear and a lift ticket for the day. It also includes a voucher for lunch. This program is sponsored by Midas Gold, so there is no charge to participants. Early sign up is suggested. Capacity is limited and will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.

Shuttle service will be available each day with stops in Donnelly and McCall:

Donnelly Elementary Departure: 8:00 am
Payette Lakes Middle School Departure: 8:30 am
Bus is scheduled to depart from the mountain between 3:30 pm – 3:45 pm each day.

Additional Shuttle service will be available on Thursday
with stops in Council and New Meadows:

Council High School Departure: 7:30 am

New Meadows School Departure: 8:15 am

Bus is scheduled to depart from the mountain between 3:30 pm – 3:45 pm each day.

Those providing their own transportation will need to check in at the mountain no later than 9 am for First-timer and beginner lessons (which begin promptly at 10 am). Intermediate and advanced lesson sessions will be offered at 11:30 sharp, but those participants can pick up their rental gear and take some warm-up runs prior to lesson time.

Each child can reserve one full-day session in advance. Those wishing to participate on more than one day will be put on a waiting list for additional days and will be notified about multiple-day availability at the end of each day. No shows without prior notification will be removed from waiting list and become ineligible to participate for the remainder of the week.
