Yes! Children 4-17 may join the Wild Mountain Sunday PM league, Buck Hill Friday Night All Age League, Buck Hill Saturday All Age league, the Hyland Tuesday all age league, or the NEW Wild Mountain Friday afternoon league. New for 2008-09, Kids of all ages are allowed to participate in the new Friday night December league at Buck Hill.  Also, kids 13 and up are allowed to participate in the Wild Mountain Wed December league.

Space is limited.  Parents are not required to race but are strongly encouraged to be present at each race.  Adults and Kids can race on the same team or kids can race on an all kids team and adults can race on an all adult team.  All teams will compete against each other for scoring.  A liability release form will need to be signed by a parent for each child prior to the child racing in the league.  These forms will be available the first night of racing or can be obtained online at this link:  Liability Form.

Kids, adult, and mixed teams will all run in bib order.  No kids teams will run first.  Please check with Ski Challenge staff if your child needs additional assistance or needs to run out of order.
