Info you Need to Know:

The Burbank Center is open Fridays and Saturdays until 9 pm to pick up lift tickets and/or rental equipment for your child for their lessons. This makes your morning process much quicker and easier!

3 year olds get dropped off at Burbank and picked up in the Playroom 7 days a week.

On weekends & holidays, if your child has a lift ticket, or has a reservation with pre-registration (online or over the phone) AND equipment go directly to the Sugar House on the Chipmunk slope near the Magic Carpet. Lift tickets and release forms will be on file for these students in the Sugar House. If your child is pre-registered, with equipment and is a skier, in the Fox, Coyote or Whitetail levels they should go to the Corey Room in the Paul Major Welcome Center - snowboarders in those levels should go to the Sugar House.

On weekends & holidays, if you are using a 6-pack voucher, are paying in cash, have not yet made a reservation, and/or your child needs equipment then go to the Burbank Center to complete registration and pick up equipment.

During midweek, non-holiday periods all children should go to The Burbank Children’s Center before heading out on the snow.

Weekend/Holiday Registration begins at 8 am, Midweek/Non-holiday registration begins at 8:30 am.

At the end of the day, students may be picked up by the Sugar House on the Chipmunk slope. Students in the 3-year old program may be picked up in the Cub’s Den Playroom.
