Blizzard Ski & Snowboard School

Frequently Asked Questions

These are some questions we get a lot in the office. Click any question below for more info.


Can I get credit for my trip if I cancel by the deadline?

Does Blizzard offer scholarships?

Blizzard Ski & Snowboard School is committed to socioeconomic diversity in our programs and to making skiing and snowboarding financially accessible to all families. To achieve this vision, we have established the Blizzard Family Assistance Fund to assist families who might not otherwise be able to afford to ski or snowboard with Blizzard. The program is funded by donations from members, staff, and Blizzard itself.



How do I invite a guest?

If I drive, where do I get my lift ticket?

If you plan to drive, be sure you notify the Blizzard office by the Thursday 8pm deadline so we can have a discounted lift ticket waiting for you. When you arrive at the area, come into the chalet and find the Blizzard Table to receive your lift ticket. Just look for the banner and a crowd of kids!



What does the membership fee cover?

If my child gets sick, can I get a refund?

Where are the bus stops?

Where are the bus times listed for each trip?

Bus times are listed on your email reservation confirmation. You can also find bus times on our calendar or by looking up your bus stop. You can also call the office and listen to the voicemail message; bus times for upcoming trips are updated each week.



Why can't my kids rent equipment at the area each time?

Why do I need to RSVP by the deadline? Can't I just show up?

Why is there a no-show fee?

If you make a reservation and then miss the trip without canceling your reservation by the deadline (typically Thursday at 8pm), you will be charged a No-Show Fee. This fee covers busing and administrative expenses and is necessary to keep costs low for all members.

Exceptions to the No-Show Fee may be made on an individual basis in the case of sudden illness or family emergency if you contact the office. We would rather have your child recuperating at home than having a miserable day on the hill -- and sharing their germs with everyone else on the bus. Your call or email on Friday or Saturday will be appreciated so we can let our staff know the status of your child.
