Snowflake KidSki Program

2009-2010 will mark KidSki's 15th year of cross country ski lessons for kids ages 4-12. The program is staffed by local volunteers who want to share their talents and inspire a lifelong love of the sport in our children. KidSki emphasizes a fun, game-based approach to learning to ski. Skiers of all abilities are welcome.

We are above our temperature cut-off, so KidSki is on for January 31.  Bundle up your kids, its a beautiful day.

KidSki is on for Jan. 24

posted in: Snowflake KidSki Program by Pete Langr | January 24, 2010

Yesterday’s icy trails should be covered up by new-fallen, but slushy snow, so KidSki is on.  Please be careful on the roads, and be aware that the parking lot at Snowflake was very slippery yesterday, so try not to put your car in a spot it can’t get out of.  Also, please don’t park on[...]

Jan. 3 KidSki is on!

posted in: Snowflake KidSki Program by Pete Langr | January 3, 2010

Temperatures are at or above zero, and wind chills are above -15, so KidSki is on.  However, it is still cold, so please bring kids dressed well.  Something to pull over faces is a good idea.

Snowflake KidSki is on!

Snowflake KidSki is on for Sunday, Dec. 19.  Coaches, there is no classical track on the trails, although the oval has a good track for level three.  Please plan your activities for the conditions.

Dec. 13 KidSki postponed

posted in: Snowflake KidSki Program by Pete Langr | December 12, 2009

The 1st session of KidSki, scheduled for Dec. 13th,  has been postponed for lack of snow.  Although trails are ski-able, the consensus is that the trails may not give a great skiing experience, and may be hard on people’s skis.  We’ll try again next week.  Hope for snow!

KidSki Registration Closed
