General Program Policies

ABSENT/ILLNESS POLICY
Yawgoo Valley is not responsible for missed classes due to personal reasons or non-medically excusable. No refunds, credits, or make-ups will be offered for personal absences.

ACCURATE INFORMATION
You do a disservice to your child, other children, and families – as well as our staff and your child’s instructor – by knowingly misrepresenting your child’s age or ability. If there is reason to suspect a misrepresented date of birth or experience level, you may be subject to removal from the program.

CHAIRLIFT RIDING
Chairlift riding classes will NOT be offered for Kinder programs and the Mini Ski programs will have only limited days and times for chair riders. Should your child have intermediate or advanced experience at this age level, you are encouraged to reach out to a Snowsports representative or take a private lessons.

HELMETS
Helmets for purchase will be available in the Pro Shop starting in November.  We do not rent helmets and they are not included in any rental equipment package. Visit our website for Pro Shop hours in late October .Helmets are not required, but we encourage their use.

INCLEMENT WEATHER & MAKEUP POLICY
We are a weather-dependent facility, relying solely on mother nature & our own snow-making capabilities.  We reserve the right to cancel/postpone lessons as deemed necessary by management for the safety of our guests and staff, non-ideal snow conditions, or excessive inclement weather.  Yawgoo Valley also reserves the right to extend program lessons through holiday periods as well as through the month of March if necessary to complete the classes.

  • In the event of cancelation, guests will be notified via our website under our daily operations report as well as via social media and email. Due to constantly changing weather forecasts, guests are encouraged to verify operations every morning prior to leaving for the resort.

REFUND POLICY

  • All registration payments are non-refundable. Registrations cannot be transferred to another student.

REQUESTS
CLASS REQUESTS:  The success of our programs is built on creating groups of a similar age and ability.  These determinations are made by the Snowsports School Supervisors. Due to restrictions in space and social distancing, we will not be able to guarantee any special requests for lesson placements.

INSTRUCTOR CONSISTENCY
Snow Sports will attempt to ensure instructor consistency; however, we reserve the right to assign your lesson to an alternate instructor if:

  • The instructor is not scheduled to work or calls in sick on the date of your reservation OR The instructor has previous commitments.

SCHEDULE

  • All lessons will begin on their respective day starting with Tuesdays on January 2nd, 2024. Classes will be held once weekly for 5-consecutive weeks. The final week of classes is expected to be held the last week of January - the first week of February however, in the event of postponed classes, they can be delayed 1-3 additional weeks (or more). Due to weather delays being beyond our control, we will not issue any credits should students be unable to attend postponed classes.

TARDINESS POLICY

  • Yawgoo Valley is not responsible for late arrivals to class. No refunds, credits, or make-ups will be offered for any missed portions of the class.
  • Should you arrive late, staff will do their best to connect the student with their group in a timely fashion, however, this may take additional time if the group is on the chairlift. Please do your best to arrive early to ensure your student gets the most out of their experience.
