Take a trip to beautiful West Virginia and join us for three fun filled
days on the snowy slopes.  Bring your family, friends and
caregivers for a short winter vacation and enjoy the fresh outdoors.  
Fun on the slopes by day and in the lodge by night.  Come
socialize with the group, meet new people and play.
 This is a great
trip for
people of all ability levels.
Join us for some on and off snow fun at SKI BASH 2009.   This is a ski clinic for
persons of all ages and skiing abilities from the never ever to the expert.  Certified ski
instructors come from around the region to provide top quality instruction using the
latest in adapted skiing equipment.           
    
  • Lessons:  Each skier is guaranteed ONE 2 1/2 hour lesson per day.  There are
    two lesson sessions each day:  am  9 - 11:30 and pm  1 - 3:30.  

  • Snow Board Lessons:  We will be offering adapted snow boarding lessons for
    individuals who can ski standing up (with or without adapted equipment).  

  • Equipment:  All necessary equipment is provided during the time of your
    lesson.

  • Personal Equipment:  Those using personal equipment outside of lessons
    must be independent with loading/off loading the chair lift.  If you are not , you
    must pay for a lesson.   If you have your own equipment but would still like a
    lesson sign up and you will be paired up with an instructor appropriate for your
    skiing level.  To ensure safety, we reserve the right to assess your lift loading
    and unloading prior to giving out a lift ticket.  We require all sit down equipment
    have a chair lift safety retention strap and evacuation system installed on the
    unit.

  • Helmets:  We recommend that all skiers wear a helmet.   We do have         
    helmets available for use, however, if you have your own bring it.  

  • Weight limit:  Please be advised that there is a weight limit.  This is for your
    safety.

    with your daily care, you must provide that person.

    Canaan Valley.

    will also offer breakfast and dinner for a fee.

    we are also offering discounted lift ticket and equipment rental.

We will be staying at the Canaan Valley Resort Hotel.  This is not a ski in, ski out hotel,
however, it is only a short 2 mile drive through the state park to get to the ski hill.  There
is a free shuttle bus service, however, the bus does not have a wheelchair lift at this
time.    We are working on getting one for the event.  The hotel has a bar and two
restaurants on site.

Hotel Rooms and Accessibility:  The rooms at this hotel are standard rooms with
either one or two beds.   The hotel does have a few accessible rooms.  Keep in mind
that these will go quickly.  All of the hotel rooms have 36" wide doors into the
bathrooms.   If you MUST have a tub bench - I suggest you bring one with you!

To make your room reservation call 800- 622-4121 between 8 am and 8 pm..  Tell
them that you are with "BARS

general public's use and charge full price for the rooms
