We’re going to take part in setting a new Guinness World Record for the most skiers/boarders learning to ski and snowboard at one time!
Ski and snowboard resorts throughout the U.S. are offering a beginner lesson in an effort to set the Guinness Book of World Records for the largest ever. If you have never skied before, Friday, January 8, 2016 at 10 a.m. is going to be the perfect opportunity for you to learn a new life-long sport at Crystal Mountain, and for only $10!
Beginner group ski and snowboard lessons begin at 10am (local time) and cost $10 each which includes the lesson and Totem Park access – rental not included. Lessons are expected to last approximately 1.5 hours.
If you already ski or snowboard, then tell your beginner friends and family members about it and help set the new world record.
