Ski Ward

[wa-loaf]

I'm thinking of putting my daughter in ski school at Ski Ward on Saturdays or Sundays this winter. Runs for 5 weeks starting the first Sat of January. Was wondering if anyone knows how busy it gets there in the weekend and if Sat or Sunday would be better. I'd prob get her in the 9:30 am program and spend that time skiing with my 3 year old.

The place is 10mins down the road and I'm thinking the convenience will be tough to beat.

Sounds like the program I learned how to ski from. I did the Sunday program my first year, then an after school program. This 26 years ago though, no clue how crowds would be.

I was there last februrary on a saturday. The place was pretty much dead in the morning.

Do it. The only time we've seen it busy at places like this is early afternoon when the local schools bus over millions of nearly unsupervised kids who spend most of their time eating and dropping snickers bars and popcorn all over the floor. I would think weekends would be perfect, as these newly-skilled terrors head north with their 'rents. They tend to have the inverse problem of the northern areas, 'cept wa-wa, and that's cause it's a weeknight scene. Bradford is too small to do too much damage

We were there on a weekday morning/early afternoon and pretty much had the place to ourselves.

Never skied there but it's a few minutes up the road so I've driven by it a lot and I've never noticed a crowd there. I bet she would have a blast learning there, meeting and skiing with new friends her own age.
