This handbook has been designed to assist you with the organization of your group's excursion. We look forward to working with your group this winter. Sincerely, Gord Roy Director 4 OVERNIGHT DESTINATIONS When choosing a destination for your multi-day ski trip there are several important factors to consider. Each destination has different qualities. What might be good for a group of 13 year old non- skiers/snowboarders would probably not be acceptable to a group of 16 year old experienced skiers/snowboarders. When planning your trip look at the following factors: 1. Age of students. 2. Overall skiing/snowboarding ability of the group. 3. Type of meals necessary (i.e. meal plans). 4. Need for extra activities. 5. Trip dates. The age of the students will determine the type of accommodation that you will require and the amount of supervisors needed to adequately chaperone the group. With younger students an easily contained small ski area is usually the best option. Older students can be placed in condominium style accommodations. The overall skiing/snowboarding ability of the group will affect your destination. If you have primarily “beginners” you do not need to go to one of the more expensive high profile destinations. Group meals for younger students can be arranged at many of the destinations. For older students, staying in condominiums allows them the freedom to bring their own food which keeps the cost of the trip down. Most groups like to be able to keep the students busy in the evening with an organized activity. Each destination offers different facilities for use in the evening. Evening activities can also include a trip to Quebec City, a dance, or some kind of show put on by the students (i.e. lip-synch, talent show, etc.) The date of your trip will affect the cost and availability of accommodations. Generally the month of January and first two weeks of February are the most economical times for groups. Many establishments do not accept students during the peak periods at the end of February and beginning of March. On the following pages you will find the different destinations available. Each resort will have a brief description of the ski hill followed by the various lodging facilities and corresponding prices. Prices will vary depending on the dates of the
