Nordic Skiing & Tubing

This wonderful experience will have students skiing through the woods in the backcountry around Mt. Washington.

Costs

Brentwood is covering the full cost of transportation to Mt. Washington, and the mountain is providing the School with a discount on all rentals, lift tickets, and accessories.

Students will pack a lunch in the dining hall before departure to remove the need to buy lunch on the mountain. We will be bussing directly back to the School for a special dinner—the Winterlude Banquet—at the conclusion of the day.

If parents are budgeting for the day, the cost will not exceed $150.00 (Rentals, Lift, Lessons, and Accessories). If students have their own gear and are not partaking in lessons, the cost will be approximately $30.00.

Students and Staff will receive an email with their bus assignments at least 3 days prior to the event.
