NOTE: The CSTC Elementary School Ski Program requires one parent supervisor per 8/10 children to assist the children, help oversee the group during lessons, pull up the rear on the trails, provide assistance to children putting on and taking off gear. Please remember though, that the lessons are for the children, and parents need to be comfortable enough on skis to manage themselves. CSTC will outfit one parent supervisor/group at no charge. All other visiting parents will receive a special rate of $10.00/half day for rental equipment and trail fee.
If you would like to book a group, have any questions or require clarification, please email youthskischool@caribooski.ca
