Learn to Ski and Snowboard
Dear Parents and Friends, September 2011
Hello from Mount Peter! Believe it or not, it is already
time to start planning winter activities! Fall is here,
and the BEST season is a mere weeks away. If you or
your kids are interested in learning or improving on
the two greatest winter activities – skiing and
snowboarding – our Multi-Week program is a great
way to do it.
Our Multi-Week Ski and Snowboard Program, for both beginner
and intermediate skiers and snowboarders, is a fun way
to either learn the sports of skiing and snowboarding,
or to improve your skills. These sports help to make
winter FUN and exciting, and are a great way to get
out and meet new people.
This eight-week program begins the first week of January.
For kids, it is offered Tuesday through Friday nights,
and Saturday and Sunday mornings and afternoons. You
choose the day that is best for your child, and come
for eight consecutive weeks on that same night or weekend
day. The adult program is offered Thursday, Saturday,
and Sunday mornings, and Tuesday and Thursday nights.
Participants choose which session they would like to
attend, and they return for eight consecutive weeks.
Participants pay for just seven weeks, and the eighth
week is free, to be used as a make-up for a missed session.
Or just as some extra time on the slopes. The program
is ala carte, meaning that you only have to sign-up
for what you need. We offer lift tickets (which are
good from 3 p.m.-closing during the week and 8:30 a.m.-5
p.m. on weekends), lessons (which are an hour per session),
and rentals. Remember that if you do not have a season
pass, you will need to purchase the ticket portion of
the program. A season pass/lift ticket is considered
an “area ticket,” which you must have in
order to be on the snow, regardless of actual chairlift
use.
Please note that for weekend participants, there will
be NO program during the Martin Luther King holiday
weekend, January 14th-16th and the program will be extended
for one week.
The deadline to sign up for this program is November
7, 2011. The program fills-up fast, so sign-up today
to get the day that you want. There will be a mandatory
parent meeting on December 17th at 5 p.m. and the 20th
at 7 p.m., please choose one to attend.
For kids that have already been through the program
(or already learned the skills on their own), the next
step in learning is the Alpine Development Ski or Snowboard
Program. This program, designed for those who are skiing
or riding intermediate terrain and can use the chairlift
by themselves, will take accomplished intermediate skiers
or snowboarders to the next level. This program is held
on Saturdays from 9 a.m.-noon, is for everyone between
the ages of 8 and 17, and also runs for eight consecutive
weeks. Please call the mountain for additional information
and to register. The early program rates expires November
7th, 2011.
For more information on the Mount Peter Multi-Week Ski
and Snowboard Program, Adult Program, or Alpine Development
Program, give us a call at 845-986-4940, or stop by
customer service any day from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. The information
and registration form can also be found on our Website:
mtpeter.com under the “Forms” heading. Otherwise,
send in your or your child’s form to guarantee
your preferred day.
We have exciting changes at the mountain this winter,
including a new learning area, which we will use in
addition to our learning center. Our long-range weather
forecast is pointing to a great and snowy winter, so
don’t miss out on all the fun!!
Think Snow!
Sincerely,
Amy Richardson
Director of Sales and Services
p.s. – If your child does not fit into the Multi-Week
Program or Alpine Development Program, you might be
interested in our Dynamites program for little ski-racers-to-be,
or our Racing Program. You can find information on the
Web, or just give us a call.
