4th & 5th graders ski FREE in Michigan!
Michigan Snowsports Industries Association's "Cold is Cool" program allows 4th and 5th graders to ski FREE in Michigan! Students can obtain a "Cold is Cool" Ski & Ride Passport that gives them up to three free lift tickets or trail passes at over 25 participating ski areas, plus additional discounts on the slopes and in Michigan ski shops. MSIA charges $20 for the passport (to cover printing and shipping). This passport includes a coupon for 20% off a helmet purchase and $20 off the purchase of $100 at participating ski shops across the state. Some ski areas have also included coupons for equipment rental and free or discounted lessons.
Go to the Go Ski Michigan website to fill out and pay for your passport online, or to download the application.
