Holiday Camp

Join us during Holiday Break December, 2010

Do you want your children to learn a lifetime sport you can enjoy as a family?

At the four day D/SAC Holiday Camp, children from 5-16 years old will learn to handle the runs with ease and become more confident on the snow!

Children are grouped by age and ability. Skills taught by the certified instructors range from learning to put skis or snowbards on to riding the tow and chairlift to making parallel turns down the more advanced hills.

Upper level skiers will be able to try "gate training" (weather permitting). 

1) Minimal or no experience on skis.
2) Comfortable on rope tow. Can easily perform linked wedge turns across hill.
3) Beginning to parallel. Comfortable on green and blue runs.
4) Comfortable with parallel turns, but needs improvement in technique.
Snowboard levels will be determined on snow the first morning of camp.
