Skiing at Chester Bowl
By brian on Nov 11, 2009 in Advice, Outdoors, Recommendations
The ski lottery was held a few weeks ago at Chester Bowl, but there are still some ski rental packages available. The Chester Bowl Improvement Club provides inexpensive season ski packages, including skis, poles, boots, helmets, and season ski passes, for those that want to take part in skiing, lessons or other activities at Chester Bowl. You also get a day pass to Spirit Mt. and Mont du Lac. Many parents call the Chester Bowl Ski Program the best deal in town, but for those unable to afford the already low prices, scholarships are available.
Check out the Chester Bowl website for more info.

This program is such a gem. I was the recipient of free gear for my first year or two of skiing back in the mid-80s. Without this, there is no way my family could have afforded to outfit us kids with all the required gear and access to a hill.
The place isn’t quite the same with the chairlift instead of the ol’ tow rope, but it is still very worthwhile. I’m glad that the CBIC has continued to keep this going with all of the city budget issues.
