Thanks so much for all of your support in helping your student to be prepared for this wonderful opportunity to experience the “Greatest Snow on Earth.”
Remember to clearly label each piece!
Your student must have the following items each week:
Skis (& poles if appropriate) or board
Ski bag containing the following items:
Ski/board boots
Helmet
Goggles; if you can’t see, you can’t ski or ride!
Waterproof & wind resistant, breathable insulated pants and parka
Waterproof gloves or mittens
Neck gaiter
SOCKS are critical. Be sure to provide one pair of socks that fit well, and are NOT cotton (this will make for cold feet!). Imagine wrinkled socks and uncomfortable feet; and be sure your child doesn’t have them.
Long underwear
Fleece top/sweater
2 face masks
Practise makes Perfect
Letting your student practice packing and wearing their gear will set them up for success and make Winter Sports days fun for everyone! Time spent practising putting gear on and off and carrying it around by themselves will allow your child to be confident, comfortable, and independent.
