FAQ's

Do I have to be a pro to join?

No, you do not need to be a pro ski or snowboarder to join. Additionally, you do not even have to know how to ski/ snowboard to join. Though it may be difficult to learn, lessons can be organized with the ski areas directly or you can tag along with a friend that is willing to teach. We have skiers of all experience levels on our team. Our club offers a welcoming community of skiers to hit the slopes with.
