Fourth, fifth and sixth graders (ages 9 – 12 years old) are at a crucial age in their development where they are choosing (or not choosing) healthy lifestyle activities over more sedentary activities. Choosing activities that help children keep active in the winter is a high priority to Ski Utah and its members. We believe that a healthy child is a happy child and happy, active children grow up to be happy, active adults. This benefits everyone.Utah students may have been introduced to skiing or snowboarding through Ski Utah's 4th Grade Learn to Ski and Ride program and are ready to participate on a more frequent basis. Fourth, fifth and sixth graders are also physically strong enough to participate in skiing and snowboarding at new levels making the sports an easy choice for lifetime participation.
