Our First Light Celebration is now happening during our Holiday Trail Celebration!

Santa will kick off the festivities at 5pm with a Horse Drawn Surrey ride down Crystal Mountain Drive starting from Kinlochen. He’ll hop off at the Crystal Center and use his holiday magic to help us light our tree at 5:30pm sharp! Plus, we’ll sing along to holiday favorites with Izzy Wallace.

but we encourage you to utilize Friday nights check-in.

We accept downhill, cross country and snowboard equipment, ski racks, ice skates
and roller blades. Bindings are accepted but must be mounted to a board.
Clothing, accessories and helmets are also accepted. The club will only accept
serviceable and sellable equipment. Please, no long straight skis.

SKI SWAP

Antrim Ski Academy and may be disposed of. Sorry, no exceptions.
We will mail out any checks that are not picked up.

Offsetting the costs of ski and snowboard clinics. The fees charged for most of our programs
