Now that you know all about the new Wonder Carpet lift at the Snow Bowl, how about we give you some more handy information, like how to keep your kids active and moving this winter!  Since the Bowl offers so many lesson options, we’ll highlight the bests just for you and casually mention that they offer on site rentals* too (just in case Jr. decides he’s not the next Bodi Miller). Our favorite part, they offer lesson series during school vacations!

HOLIDAY SERIES – sign up today, spots are going quick!

A series of five one-hour ski clinics offered to children 5 years & older and snowboard clinics 8 years and older (beginner-expert). Clinics include lots of mileage with others of similar age and ability. Clinics meet at 1:00. Students deemed eligible may use lifts with their name tags from 12:30-4:00 surrounding each clinic. 12/26 – 12/30 • 1:00 p.m • $98

Hello, I’m Eliza. I founded MiniBury in 2012 because I had a hunch that I wasn't the only parent in Addison County missing fun family friendly events. I love the challenge of finding and sharing information about our community to other parents.
