Space - we have space for 8 participants in each group (but have been known to make exceptions, so check in with us!)
Cold weather policy - We will email families the night before or at least by 8 am the day of the program if we need to cancel due to adverse conditions. We consider temperature, windchill factor, and sunshine. Generally, our cut-off temperature is -15C. Sometimes, we just stay closer to the Chalet and come inside to warm up. Each season we usually cancel one or two sessions (not postponed) due to the cold.
