However, if we are unable to find a suitable option for the lesson participants, we will provide a refund when appropriate.
• All Private, Semi-Private and Parent & Tot Lessons include a Lesson Lift Ticket for each Lesson participant (including the accompanying adult in Parent & Tot Lessons).  During the Lesson, the Lesson Lift Ticket is valid for all Lifts at the discretion of the instructor.
