New England USA School Ski Trips

Day 1
Depart from London airport bound for Boston. Your group will be met by a member of the destination team and escorted to your coach for transfer to Sunday River. The Snow Cap Inn combines all the charm of a cozy New England lodge with the convenience of a short walk to the slopes. The communal areas have warm fires and rustic furniture and are ideally located at the end of the bedroom corridors for group leaders to be able to congregate and keep an eye on the student. The Snow Cap’s location is perfect not just for the slopes but for the White Cap Centre which has a skating rink and a really unusual tubing hill.

Day 2
Your will start each morning with an American style buffet with a tempting range to suit all palates and appetites. Sunday River has an excellent schools programme and Troy the programme director likes to meet all the groups and ensure everything runs smoothly, especially on the first day as everyone gets their skis and is allocated their instructor. All the information for the group is pre-supplied and your equipment is ready and waiting. After a full day of skiing it’s back down to the Snow Cap. As with all areas of activ4 programmes, evening entertainments will be carefully planned for your group and after your first day skiing you can round off the day with a walk over to the White Cap Lodge to skate or toast marshmallows by the fire.

Day 3
Head out for another full day of fun in the snow. The Perfect Turn Ski School has an excellent reputation and for those first timers there is even a magic carpet lift running alongside the beginners slope. Lunch during the week can be taken at any of the mountain restaurants but generally everyone likes to meet up at the base lodge by the large fire. Groups can opt to pre-purchase lunch vouchers, usually for $10 per day and that will be enough for a filling lunch on the run before getting back out there. Tonight your group can get together for a quiz.

Day 4
Another active day and everyone starts to feel that they are making progress. The base station at Sunday River is well proportioned and even includes a convenience store so the children can pick up some of the essential items such as Gatorade and Hershey Bars. This evening why not make the most of the snow and head out for some snow tubing – a great adrenaline buzz!

Day 5
Set off for another exciting day skiing. Head on up the mountain for the start of the ski lessons. By now the students will have gained confidence and will be eager to show what they can do! This evening you can walk over to the Ice Arena and enjoy an evening of Ice Skating.

Day 6
The last day to make the most of the snow. After a hectic week of intense lessons the students will be desperate to show you what they can do! After saying your good-bye’s on the mountain it’s back to the hotel for a presentation evening bringing everyone together and recognising improvement and dedication throughout the tour.

Day 7
Unfortunately all good things come to an end and today you check out. A popular option is to hit the Outlet Mall and head for the Abercrombie and Fitch and the Hollister stores. Then over to Boston Logan Airport for the flight home.

Day 8
Arrive back at your London airport. Your tour officially ends when you get back to the UK, but with a trip this great we are sure that it will live long in the memory.
