Notice – Changes for the 2025 season, please read everything below before signing up.

Ski School this year is dependant on if we can get bus drivers signed up with the school to drive for us.  If we cannot get drivers then ski school will be canceled and refunds given.

Ski School 2025. This year will be much like last with some of the same changes in place and some new.  Kelly Canyon has continued to improve the resort in many ways since last year.  Check this website often as well as join the Facebook group if you have not already done so. All updates will be posted there and it’s much easier to answer questions where everyone can see the answers.

Schedule: We are planning on the following four days for ski school. Jan 24 3-7:30pm, Jan 31 10am-2:30pm, Feb 7 3-7:30pm, Feb 14 3-7:30pm. The cost will be $250 without rentals, $350 with rentals. These fees include the cost for ticket, lessons and bus rides. All students will ride the bus to the hill.  Students can ride home with parents if a note is given to the bus director before leaving the school.

Helmets Helmets are STRONGLY encouraged for all students and adults on the hill.  We have had some major accidents over the past few years that could have been prevented if helmets were worn.  All rentals from Kelly’s include helmets so be sure to ask for one.

New Changes at the Resort Snow makers, reconditioned lifts, new lights, remodeled lodge and the list goes on.  Many of these were in place last year but not fully completed.

Ticket style – NO RFID cards this year! Instead every student will have a PRINTED TICKET. Kelly’s is still trying to figure out how this will work so we will update you as more information comes in.

Parent and sibling passes will be $40 for the same ski time as the student passes. Passes will be purchased online in advance and then picked up at the ticket window.  More info will be available before the first day of ski school.

Parking area for buses They have designated lanes and parking for the buses so getting in and out should be much easier for everyone.

School Area Behind Rental Shop One of the biggest changes is they now have a designated school area that is just behind the rental shop.  They have two big storage containers with shelf storage for gear, paver area with heaters, benches and tables.  This is where kids will unload and take their gear.  No gear will be taken to the lodge this year.  If you bring food from home it needs to stay in this area since they are not allowing outside food and drink in the lodge.  This area is where kids will change, store their gear and relax when not skiing.  The lodge is still open with the restaurant if they want to purchase food and eat in the lodge.

Kelly Canyon Rental Agreement If your student is renting equipment from Kelly Canyon then a rental agreement needs to be signed after you sign your student up for ski school.  The link to the rental agreement this year is on Kelly Canyon’s website.  If you have multiple students renting for ski school the agreement only needs to be signed once.

Signups AND payments must be completed before Dec 13th, there will be no late signups this year due to getting everything to Kelly Canyon before their deadline.

Sign Ups are Closed for 2025
