Massanutten's License-To-Slide 2009


License-To-Slide 2008-2009
Massanutten's License-To-Slide Program offers the best-value seasonal package for skiers and snowboarders of every skill level. This package can be purchased with or without lessons. For first-timers through expert levels looking for coaching, enjoy four 90-minute group lessons conveniently held the same day, same time, each week. After your lessons are completed, you'll have two more slope-use tickets to be used for any night session. Slope use availability is dependent upon different packages.
For those looking for an affordable way to enjoy the slopes with a variety of session and day options, we offer this program as a package without lessons. For as little as $108, you can receive six slope-use tickets to be used any night session, beginning Monday, January 12, 2009.

All License-To-Slide participants receive bonuses, including one additional slope-use ticket, one free snow tubing ticket and a discount on one purchase at The General Store.
Snowboard lessons are available on Friday or Saturday night.
Skiing lessons only Saturday night.

Lessons start at 5 pm-meet at the bell 10 minutes before your lesson.
