As the ski season has taken its course in several regions of Quebec, the Association des stations de ski du Québec (ASSQ) is launching its “My first time” initiation program.

Since December 18, people who want to learn about sliding sports can do so at a reduced rate of $29.95, plus taxes.

This price includes a one-hour lesson in skiing or snowboarding, with full equipment rental and access to the learning zone at one of the dozens of participating ski resorts.

The amount also includes a second free visit to the station, this time including equipment rental and access to the learning area.

More than 40 resorts in 13 regions of Quebec participate in this program, including some of the most popular in the province, such as Mont-Tremblant, Sommet Saint-Sauveur, Mont Sutton, Bromont and Stoneham.

The “My First Time” program is for everyone aged 5 and over, not just children! A great opportunity to learn as a family, as a couple, with friends, or alone.

To register, go to the ASSQ website (boutique.maneige.sk), where you can find the participating ski resorts and all the available time slots.

New availabilities will be added throughout the winter of 2022-23.
