Weekend Recreation Program

Brighton Resort trips commence in December and are designed for students looking for a program that provides a healthy amount of ride-time for beginners to advanced riders.

Students in the Recreation Program will spend 10 weekends in an on-slope lodge at Brighton Resort. This program leaves Friday after school and returns Sunday evening. Every student in the program will get coaching on Saturday and Sunday and still have plenty of free time to ride with friends.

Safety is always a top priority so coaches will evaluate snow and weather conditions as well as rider abilities. Students will identify individual goals with coaches to create a strategy for success.
