Riley is taking Ski lessons at Sundance Ski Resort for 5 weeks. He is doing it with our neighbor, Sara, who attends Wasatch Elementary. Wasatch offers ski lessons every other friday for 5 times. They ride the school bus up to the resort @12:30 pm and get to Sundance at 1 pm. They have lessons by levels for a couple of hours and then they get free time for 1 hour. They ride the school bus home at 5 pm and get back to Wasatch to be picked up at 5:30 pm. We had to rent some skis and boots for Riley from BYU Outdoors Unlimited. They have a good deal setup with the school to rent them for $45 for 5 times. Riley has to get checked out of school early around 11:30 am and then change into his snow ski gear and eat his lunch on the way to Wasatch Elementary. (about 20 minutes) He was placed in the Level 1 class, because he has not done the ski lift before. He was a little bit bummed about that, but we wouldn't want him to get hurt either. He had a great time, but his feet were a little bit tight in his ski boots, so they got cold. He gets to go again, on January 23rd and two times in February and once in March.
