The Big White Ski Club is a non-profit organization that for over 70 years has provided world-class alpine ski training. The club's goal is to develop the foundation needed for a child to become a ski racer. This is done through controlled mileage, lots of skiing, diversity on and off snow, physical and mental training, and the introduction to structured competition.
