Getting There
We can carpool/caravan from Los Angeles. Depending on the weather conditions in January, you may need snow chains for your car make and model. If you have a 4 x 4 vehicle or an all-wheel drive vehicle, then chains will not be required. If there is a snowstorm, there is usually an attendant who will charge you about $50 cash to help put chains on your car. You can also look at YouTube to see the best way to put chains on your vehicle.
Tentative Agenda
Housing and food will be hosted. We will establish a WhatsApp group chat for all kids and parents to stay connected as we get closer to the event.
Packing
If you have friends with children who ski or snowboard, we recommend you call them first to see what can be borrowed. We also have a small collection of items to loan out to newer boarders. This can be handled one on one. The items below were sourced to be budget friendly and designed for beginners.
