Homewood offering free ski lessons

January 11, 2020 By Jeffrey Weidel

Homewood Mountain Resort in Lake Tahoe is offering free ski and snowboarding lessons this month.

First-time skiers and snowboarders are offered a great value when they take a lesson at Homewood and other Tahoe ski resorts in January.

As part of “Learn to Ski and Snowboard Free Month,” in January Homewood Mountain first-timers are invited to be one of 70 people to enjoy a free lesson on “The Very Best Day to Learn to Ski and Ride,” or to get a free season pass after completion of three half-day lessons through the “Easy as 1-2-3” program.

“We know when people learn to ski or snowboard, many fall in love with the sport after receiving instruction and feeling first-hand, the
sensation of sliding on snow,” said Kevin Mitchell, general manager of Homewood Mountain Resort. “We’re offering incredible value on our ski and snowboard lesson programs in an effort to introduce more people to the sports we love, and help them to become passionate about spending time outdoors and in the snow.”

For more information on Learn to Ski and Snowboard Month in Tahoe, click here.

Located on the West Shore of Lake Tahoe, Homewood will bring back “The Very Best Day to Learn to Ski and Ride” for its second year on Monday, Jan. 20.

Featuring 70 free first-timer lessons (including lift ticket and rental equipment) for 50 adults (13-plus) and 20 children (12-under) available on a first-come, first-served basis, the day will also include complimentary hot chocolate, s’mores, live music and more. Doors open at 8 a.m. and lessons begin at 10 a.m

Homewood’s newest lesson program makes learning to ski or ride as “Easy as 1-2-3.” First-time skiers and riders ages 13-plus who pre-purchase a 3-Pack ski or snowboard lesson will receive a free 2019-20 Homewood season pass upon completion of the program.

An incredible value for first-timers, and an offer that is sure to help winter sport newcomers fall in love with skiing and riding, the Easy as 1-2-3 program is available in limited quantities from $297 (a $1,236 value).

First-time skiers and snowboarders interested in learning are offered a great value when they take a lesson at Homewood. During the month
of January, first-timer packages are offered for only $69 and include a half-day

All Day Children’s Lessons: All-day lessons complete with equipment and helmet rental, lunch and all-day lift ticket start at $229 for a single day. For those who want to extend their purchasing power, children’s lesson 3-packs are available for $495 ($165 per day).

January is a great month to learn how to ski and ride at a Tahoe ski resort.

Private Lessons: For those who want to level up their skiing or riding, or simply enjoy convenient access to ski school lift lines, Homewood’s private lessons are designed to accommodate up to five friends or family members of radically different ability levels.

Whether wanting to learn together or split an all-day lesson into blocks for different ability levels, private lessons make these scenarios possible. Private lesson rates start at $129. Equipment rentals and lift tickets sold separately.
