Special Notes
Instructors will do their best to group classes according to skill level, common goals, and confidence levels
This is a group lesson. Instructors will do their best to give individual feedback, but sometimes feedback may be
directed to benefit the entire group
We operate a skill based learning environment. As your skills progress, your group will progress to more
challenging terrain
*PLEASE NOTE*
There are no make-up days in the Women’s program. We cannot switch days if you are unable to make your
designated day. We do not want to disrupt the group dynamics by adding a new student to the group
Eldora does not cancel classes for winter weather conditions, winter driving conditions or traffic. Skiing is a
winter sport which can involve wind, snow, and below freezing temperatures. Please dress appropriately and
allow yourself a sufficient amount of time to drive to Eldora
