Mendham Ski Club Heads Back To Camelback This Season
Registration is on now through Dec. 1 for kids grades 6 through 12 in and outside of Mendham, with six Sundays at Camelback Ski Resort.
MENDHAM, NJ — The Mendham Township Ski Club is planning to be back in full swing, with registration happening through Dec. 1 or until there are 170 skiers signed up.
The price for the six week program for kids in grades 6 through 12 is $450, with an additional $50 per week for 90-minute ski lessons with Camelback Ski Resort staff in Tannersville, Pennsylvania. Transportation and lift ticket costs are included, with no refunds. The cost is for two “Triple Passes” activated on the days of the trip, which David Guida, Mendham Township’s Recreation Director, said could be used separately if a child misses a date with the club.

The group is also asking for a notarized Power of Attorney form, in case of emergency, as well as a $5 cash tip for the bus driver, which should be handed in with the Power of Attorney form.
