• Clothing:  Please make sure all clothing is labeled with your child’s name!

Dry-land usually lasts about a month. Please prepare for varied weather and for active outdoor fun and games! Running shoes, light jackets, workout clothing (suitable for running, jumping, tearing around in the sage brush advised), water bottle and water bottle holder if at all possible for our longer hikes/runs, hats & light gloves.

On snow: Once skiing starts, (typically around 1^st week of Dec.) team members will need non-cotton outerwear (team ski pants/jackets will be available for purchase soon), water bottle & holder, hats & gloves. We’ve found “lobster” gloves work best in the x-co pole straps! Alpine gloves do not work as well as kids can’t get their hands through the straps.

         Your child will need a full set of Skate skiing gear for the season - and a pair of classic poles:

Specifically: Skate skis that come to the top of your childs’ head. Skate poles that reach their mouth. Classic ski poles that are very snug under the armpit. We are happy to provide Classic skis for your child to use. The Elephants’ Perch, Backwoods and Sturetvant’s all offer lease packages around $150.00 for the season. 

•  Storage: The team has a heated, secure team building at Quigley where skiers by leave gear.  Each will have a place for skis/poles and a small cubby to leave boots, hat/gloves etc…
