Snow sports have traditionally been a family activity and a lot of families who participate in the program go on winter vacations together. Our hope is that families can hone their skills together and either be introduced to the fun of a winter vacation or just to enjoy your current ski vacation exploring uncharted terrain together! Parents are not required but highly suggested to purchase a season pass when enrolling a student into the Devo Program. We have provided parents with an incredible price to encourage as many of you as possible to join your kids on the slopes and take part of their development. We can teach them but it is the time they spend with you on the slopes that will truly develop their skills.

FAQs:
What is the Mt. Crescent Ski & Snowboard Development Program?
The Development Program is designed for skiers and snowboarders ages 7-14 to acquire skills and to develop & enhance their technique within groups of similar ability levels.
How does the program work?
The Development Program is a six week program meeting once a week starting in January.
Classes take place on Fridays from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. and on Sundays from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Your child will receive a season pass, rental equipment (rentals are an add-on purchase), and 6 weeks of lessons!
Upon arrival, your child will get their rental equipment and be separated into groups based on skill level.
What is the program’s availability and when do I need to sign up?
Our Development program sells out each year. It’s highly suggested to sign up as quickly as possible once the registration is open, usually sometime in October. Sign up for our email list or follow us on social to stay in the loop. Class sizes are limited to ensure an optimal learning experience.
