Snow School Group Programs Overview

**Glen Eden Snow School Programs are no longer available for the 2022-2023 Season.

Glen Eden is a great place to get your start and we have something for everyone—whatever your skill level! CORE programs include beginner lessons for newer skiers and snowboarders, whether you are brand new to snow sports or developing your skills from beginner to intermediate. ACADEMY programs are perfect for experienced skiers and snowboarders looking to take their abilities to the next level, with lessons that focus on developing skills from intermediate to advanced.

All Snow School Programs require the purchase of a valid Seasons Pass PLUS the lesson program. A Lesson Pass is your lowest price point, while other Seasons Pass options (like the 5 Day-7 Night,) will provide you with more access to the slopes and greater value!


Core Programs

The Core Lesson program at Glen Eden is best suited for new skiers and snowboarders and beginner students who can comfortably perform basic skills like stop, turn, and are ready to become more competent and confident in their abilities on the slopes. The Core Lesson programs are offered either on a weekly basis or as camps over the Winter or March breaks. Select from the following age groups for the appropriate group for you and/or your family.

Using our beginner hills, Kinder lessons cover the basics, such as walking, sliding, stopping and turning, before moving on to the “big hills.” Our instructors take a patient approach to helping your little ones learn with a focus on becoming self-sufficient.

Please note that a Season Pass that will be valid during the time of the Snow School Lesson must be purchased in addition to the Snow School Program. Check out Season Pass options here.

Academy Programs


Academy programs are best suited to experienced skiers and snowboarders who are advanced and confident on all hills and looking to take their skills to the next level with expert instruction through weekly programs or camp options. Click the icons below to learn more about a specific Academy Program.

I can’t make it to my Snow School lesson. Can I get a make-up lesson?

Unfortunately, we are not able to accommodate make-up lessons for 7/8-week Lesson Programs or Camps. If you have booked a one-hour Private Lesson, you can cancel and rebook up to 4 hours prior to the scheduled start of the lesson using the link in your confirmation e-mail.

 

The Snow School Lesson I wanted was full and I joined the Waitlist. What now?

Our waitlist is intended to assist our Snow School & Visitor Service teams with a clear understanding which programs are in high demand so that we can strive to staff up and add inventory where it will be most appreciated.  We know that we will not likely be able to satisfy every request on the waitlist, but our hope is to do what we can as we hire more staff.

Here’s how the 2022-2023 Waitlist works:

  • You will be notified via e-mail if a large number of program spaces are able to be added to program(s) you’ve requested
  • Everyone will be notified at the same time. The Waitlist is not numbered or in a priority order.
  • Due to the extremely high demand, we recommend visiting the registration site and signing up immediately if you hear from us regarding additions to a program. We are not able to hold these spaces for specific individuals, so when space is added, it becomes available to anyone who visits the site.
  • On occasion you may notice a single space open in a program you are looking for. Those single program spaces may appear from time to time if a family needs to remove themselves from a program or shift to a different day and time. With the number of families looking for programs, we are unable to alert everyone each time a single space opens up.
  • Please keep in mind that being on the Waitlist does not mean that you are signed up for the program, or guaranteed entry to the program. We will communicate as much as we are able and do our best to assist.

Why are lessons longer this season?

Most of the CORE programs (Junior, Adult, Primary, Teen) this season will be moving to 1.5 hours in lesson length. This allows for more mileage within lessons to further allow rider development at the stages in the learning where it’s most important and allows more time per student with their instructor in group lessons.

**Please note Kinder ski and snowboard programs will remain 1 hour in lesson length.

I’ve seen photographers out on the hill before, will me or my child be featured in any photos?

Conservation Halton will on occasion capture photos/videos of our guests, passholders, and lesson participants enjoying their time on snow. These photos/videos may be used in social media or for the purpose of promotion, marketing, and general communications. When individuals are captured in photo or video as the sole subject of a shot or are clearly identifiable we will provide advanced notice and ensure that there is an agreement to participate in such promotions.
