The CSP Mountain Division is again offering its legendary Ski Improvement Clinic, in January and February 2020, at the fabulous Kicking Horse Mountain Resort. Two clinic weeks are offered, with Week 1 running January 26 to January 31, 2020 and Week 2 taking place February 9 to February 14, 2020.
The program includes four days of group lessons in either skiing or snowboarding, five days of lift access and a celebratory banquet on the Thursday night, all at the world-class venue of Kicking Horse Mountain Resort. Attendees receive group ski or snowboard instruction for more than 20 hours across four days, in groups of comparable competency to optimize learning. There’s a full and fun social agenda, and attendees also have access to great discounts on food, retail goods, fine dining and many other offerings. This event is a blast.
The venue is amazing, the instruction is superb and the social atmosphere is unmatched. Don’t miss it.
Pricing is truly excellent, with the full package of lifts, lessons and the banquet coming in at a very reasonable $585. It’s a 2.5 per cent increase, the first in two years, to reflect higher supplier costs. Accommodation pricing is going down slightly, making this an incredible bargain.
Registration and event information can be found here. Please make sure to book early to take advantage of this great event that brings patrollers, their friends and their families together from across Canada for some superb instruction at an amazing mountain amid a terrific social atmosphere. This event sold out in 2015, 2016 and 2017 when it was a single-week offering. Week 2 sold out in 2019 and Week 1 was close to 80 per cent of capacity. Register early to avoid disappointment.
