Ski Club
The Hockomock Area YMCA really is WHERE TEENS THRIVE.
What a great time youth ages 12-17 will have this winter as our popular Ski Club returns to spend six consecutive Sundays on the slopes of nearby Wachusett Mountain! Our club is chaperoned by the director of Outdooor Education Cody Albright and his team of volunteers who show their passion for the program by their year-after-year dedication to coming out, skiing with the kids, and ensuring the safety of all. Meeting and developing friendships with kids from various backgrounds and schools makes the winter a great time for all, not to mention a great chance to learn to ski or snowboard.
Of course, all skills are welcome to particpate in ski club. Rentals and lessons are available through Wachusett Mountain (see details below). The club will have its first outing from 2:00 pm – 9:30 pm on Sunday, January 15th and the season runs through February 19, 2017.
Participants will travel by bus to Princeton, MA where they will ski and board at Wachusett Mountain. The ski area offers progressive group lessons and equipment rentals, along with a great variety of trails to accommodate beginners to experienced outdoor enthusiasts.
