Husky Snowstars
The Snowstars program is an introductory learn to ski program for children ages 5 thru 11. Participants are placed in a small group with other children of the same age skill level, and experience. . The Snowstars program focuses on developing essential skills, basic abilities and on-hill etiquette. Instruction and coaching is provided by qualified, enthusiastic and patient instructors, many of whom are products of the Snowstars program themselves. Games, fun activities and structured instruction are all components of the Snowstars curriculum. A continuous grading system and on-hill evaluation is utilized. There is no prerequisite to joining the Snowstars program. The emphasis is on fun, more than competition, and a team attitude is fostered at all times.
Highlights of the season include races, and a family fun day. The QVSC offers the Snowstars program every Saturday during the ski season from 1 to 4 pm. The conclusion of the season involves a family oriented wind up, and award presentations. Skiers are presented with certificates of completion, and are awarded stickers detailing their progress over the season. In addition to the fun factor, children, (and their parents) meet and make many new friends. Snowstars is a nationally recognized program with standards and protocol of its own and is a fun and safe way for children to become familiar and comfortable with the wonderful world of skiing. Helmets are mandatory equipment at all times.
A membership in the QVSC is necessary for Snowstar registration. Your membership entitles you to actively participate in all club activities such as races and socials; ski swaps; insurance for all family members; and guaranteed access to qualified and properly trained coaches and volunteers.
Snowstars fees give you 3 to 3.5 hours of weekly coaching, use of all club equipment such as ski aids, A/V equipment and racing gates, paid registration for races, (including lift passes if at an away event), and coaching at all Snowstars events, regardless of location.
Other fees not associated with club activities will be lift passes for each day your athlete is in lessons, and ski rentals if your child does not own his/her own equipment.
