JUNIOR RACING PROGRAM
AKA - Possum Run Ski Team
The Snow Trails Junior Racing Program welcomes skiers ages 5 to 18 with intermediate or higher skiing ability. This free, volunteer led program helps young skiers build strong fundamentals, improve their racing skills, and gain confidence on the slopes.
Program Details
Cost: FREE to join. Participants must have a valid lift ticket or season pass and provide their own equipment, clothing, and transportation.
Practice Schedule: Tuesdays and Wednesdays, 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, beginning after the New Year, weather and conditions permitting.
Attendance: Racers are not required to attend every practice but are expected to participate when visiting Snow Trails during scheduled sessions.
Chairlift Requirements: Children unable to ride the chairlift independently must be accompanied by a responsible family member or designated adult.
Program Guidelines
All participants must follow Snow Trails policies and coaches' instructions. Coaches reserve the right to remove participants for misconduct or inappropriate behavior. Practice courses are reserved for Junior Racing Program participants, coaches, and parents.
Volunteer Support
Our program is run entirely by volunteer coaches, and parent involvement is always appreciated. Proceeds from weekend races and camps help purchase racing equipment and support the continued success of the program.
