Snow School Tips

The first thing to do is to expect variable weather conditions and bringing a jacket, snow pants, toque, gloves and goggles.
Try to show up at least one hour prior to your intended lesson time. All lessons and rentals are found in the Bradley Building, which can be reached by the chunnel connecting the two buildings. If your children are 12 and under please proceed downstairs once you have reached the Bradley building to book your child's lesson in Mountain Kids.
While in the chunnel you will see Rental Forms, which can be filled out for the rental of your equipment, lessons are then booked at the Snow School desk.
If you would like to save time and download and print the Assumption of Risk and Rental Agreement prior to arriving at the mountain, you may download the Mountain Kids rental waiver here (PDF) or the adult rental waiver here (PDF). The agreement MUST BE PRINTED IN COLOR. Black and white copies will not be accepted.

Tips

Tips for Parents | Before you arrive

Lesson length determined by Program or Lesson in which the child is participating in.

Ensure that they are well rested, have eaten breakfast, and have recovered from their journey.

Bring them dressed and ready to ski or snowboard.

Don't worry about tears! Our instructors are kind, caring and trained to calm the fears of your child.

If you wish to check on your child, please phone, leave your contact info, or watch from afar.

Remember, weather conditions can change rapidly. Please ensure that your child is equipped with the following and that all belongings are labelled:
neck gaitor

goggles and sunglasses depending on the weather

Sunscreen and lip balm applied. We will reapply after lunch.

waterproof & insulated mittens, gloves, jacket and pants (sorry, we don't have clothing rentals for children)

long underwear and turtleneck

warm, dry socks

label everything with your child's first and last name

A helmet. Helmets are available for rent and are included in our rental package, but supply may be limited at peak times. Helmets are also available for purchase at Outdoor Elements. Helmets are mandatory for all children ages 3-18 participating in our ski and snowboard programs.

Did You Know ... Helmets are included with all lessons for tots and kids!

Pick up tickets and rentals before your child's first morning. You can pick up your rentals at our location in Bradley Centre from 10:00 am - 2:00 pm or from 3:30 pm - 4:30 pm. After hours, please visit our Snow School Sales Centre in the Bradley Centre open daily December 7th until April 14th.
If you are picking up tickets and rentals on your child's first morning, plan to arrive at 8:00 am.

If your child has tickets and equipment, please arrive between 8:30 and 8.45 am lessons start at 9.30am.

Meeting Locations
Children ages 4 - 6 with tickets meet inside the on the snow outside the Bradley building in the lesson area. Proceed to the Bear's Den area of the building through the registration area.

Children 7 - 12 years old with tickets and equipment meet outside the Bradley building. Staff will be available to direct you to the appropriate location for your child's age and ability.

Youth 13 + will meet their instructor in front of the Bradley building.
Your Child's Day
Your child will spend the day with their instructor and group sliding, exploring, laughing, learning and playing.

If your child has special dietary requirements, please discuss them with our sales hosts when making your reservation and again when you arrive to drop off your child. Please be aware that we try to operate "nut free" facilities so we ask that you do not pack any nut products should you choose to pack your lunch or snack.

4-12-year-olds have lunch between 12:00 pm and 1:00 pm.

Actual time on snow will vary depending on weather conditions, the group's ability and stamina. All groups will take a 1-hour lunch break; usually, those who are at the early stages of learning to slide on snow and those groups with younger children will take more frequent breaks throughout the day to rest and recuperate.

Keep in mind that children learn at different rates and that the child's overall enjoyment of their time at Mountain Kids and on the mountain is most important.
End of the Day
Pick up time is 3:30 pm from the base area. You will be required to sign a form, releasing your child from the class at the end of the day.

Children ages 4 - 6 will be picked up from inside the Bears Den.
