Bunny Rabbits
ABOUT
The Bunny Rabbit program is designed to introduce children four and five years of age to the sport of cross-country skiing.
At Chelsea Nordiq, we offer an 9-week program in which children learn cross-country skiing basics through games and activities. Our focus is on offering a fun, positive experience in a small group setting. Volunteer parents and youth coaches enthusiastically guide the young skiers through their lessons.
A big highlight is the end of season Jamboree – fun activities, ski bumps and hot chocolate.
Please note: All families will be required to volunteer as a coach, parking attendant or hot chocolate duty. There will be a sign up sheet prior to the start of lessons.
