Seasonal Programs Update
Competition Team
We are off to a great start. Last weekend, Loon hosted a competition, and several Competition Team participants placed in the top 3. At Waterville Valley's competition last weekend we had several competitors in close range of a podium spot.
All of our competitors have had great showings at events so far. The competition is high and the kids are having a blast.
Everyone who competed earned points toward a coveted invitation to USAS Nationals at Copper Mountain in April. Great work to all of our participants so far this season.

Development Team + Scouts
As we move through the first few weeks of the programs, we are making adjustments to group placements. The participant's ski/snowboard ability is a primary factor in the best group fit, as well as the dynamics of the group interactions.
Check Your Child's Holiday Access
As we approach the holiday period December 26–31, be sure your child's pass is valid, or purchase tickets valid during the holiday period.
Pass Checker
Here's a handy way to see when your pass is valid.
To Verify:
- Click through to the Pass Checker
- Enter the pass number in the lower right corner of the back of your pass
- Enter the date you intend to use your pass
Cold Weather Prep
Please check the forecasted weather. It's always a good idea to pack extra gloves or mittens, socks hand/feet warmers in your child's bag. Leave the bag with your child's coach, who will make it easily available.
Child Drop Off + Parking
Please do not leave your vehicles unattended in the drop-off zones at the resort. Please park in a designated parking spot if you intend to escort your child to the morning on-snow meet-up area.
