Looking for the perfect winter ski holiday? A great deal with an awesome crowd on epic terrain at a world-class resort? Look no further – and don’t wait too long.
The 2020 CSP Mountain Division Ski Improvement Clinic will be held at B.C.’s Kicking Horse Mountain Resort in January and February, offering five days of skiing, four days of group lessons, a banquet, a fabulous memento, and the ability to improve your skiing and riding in an unparalleled atmosphere. It’s an event that has drawn patrollers, their friends and family members from across Canada and around the world.
Demand for the event is strong. As of late October the ski clinic’s Week 2, running from February 9 to 14, had about 10 spots remaining. There continues to be ample room in Week 1, which will be conducted January 26 to 31. Please don’t miss out on an event participants rave about and includes many, many returnees. Our greatest advocates are people who have already attended.
The clinic program is focused on ski and snowboard skills improvement in a positive, supportive and fun environment. Attendees receive group ski or snowboard instruction in groups of comparable competency to optimize learning, for in excess of 20 hours across four days. It’s incredibly effective – and at an incredible value.
The full package of lifts, lessons and the banquet for an adult is a very reasonable $585. Youth and child lift passes are also available. This is event is for families and friends, not just patrollers. Accommodation pricing has gone down slightly from the 2019 event, making this an incredible bargain.
Along with the amazing instruction, epic views and world-class terrain and snow, there’s a full and fun social agenda. Attendees also have access to great discounts on food, retail goods, fine dining and many other offerings.
Registration and event information can be found on the Mountain Division website at www.skipatrol.ca/mountain/. Book now 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.
