Multi Day Programs

Bobcats and Big cats

Bobcats and Big Cats are our multi-week skiing and snowboarding lesson programs for the young rippers-to-be. Groups are broken down by age and skill level to make learning fun and safe for every skier and rider. Your children will love learning from our instructors in the Kids Fun Zone and beyond.

These programs span 14 sessions throughout the season and are designed to improve their skills, independence, and balance, all while fostering a deep love for winter sports. And they’re a great way for them to make new friends.

And while your little ones are under the careful watch of our professional instructors, we hope you manage to get a few turns in for yourself.
