This program fills very quickly, so if your child plans to participate this winter, be ready to register!
NEW for 2027: You will register and pay for your child’s bus seat ONLY through Avon Recreation. Once your child is officially on our roster, we’ll send you information on registering directly with Ski Sundown for lessons, lift passes, rentals, and other package options at the discounted rate.

Please be sure to read the full program details before registering, as the registration process has changed this year and this is a mostly independent program.
