INKOM — Scout Ski Day is scheduled for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Jan. 21, at Pebble Creek Ski Area in Inkom. Another Scout Ski Day is scheduled for Presidents’ Day, Feb. 18.
This program assists Boy Scouts who already know how to ski or snowboard in obtaining their Snow Sports Merit Badge.
First-time beginner lessons are offered for Scouts ages 10 and up who have never skied or snowboarded before.
Scouts who already have their merit badge can just have fun on the slopes. This allows troops with Scouts of varying abilities to participate together,
To complete the merit badge program, Scouts should be able to make linked turns and ski or board groomed runs. All requirements for the merit badge will be covered during this one day program.
Scouts should register downstairs in the lodge by 9:15 a.m. for the merit badge clinic and first-time beginner lessons, which start at 10 a.m. The program fee is $25 for the lift ticket and the merit badge clinic or first time lesson. Rental skis and snowboards for this program are available for $15. Helmet rental is $5.
