#YMCASkiClub is back in action!

The Hockomock Area YMCA really is WHERE TEENS THRIVE.

What a great time youth ages 11-16 will have this winter as YMCA Ski Club returns to spend Fridays or Sundays on the slopes of nearby Wachusett Mountain! Our club is escorted by our Director of Outdoor Education Ken and his volunteers. This group shows their passion for the program by coming out, skiing with the kids, and ensuring the safety of all. Developing friendships with new kids from different towns and being active makes this a great time for all.

All skills are welcome to participate in Ski Club 2024! Rentals and lessons are available through Wachusett. Our Friday club runs January 5 – February 9; Sunday club runs January 7 – February 11.

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.

Registration is now open!

Secure Transportation from your local Y — we leave the Y at 2:30 pm, returning by 9:30 pm. Transportation costs $190 per member of the Hockomock Area YMCA or $380 per non-member.
