We recommend it. Helmets are provided for all SKIWee and Cruiser Camp participants. The 2009/10 NSAA National Demographic Study revealed that nationwide, 76% of children age 14 and under used helmets last winter. Given that a ski lesson is designed to expand your child’s skill level, helmets are a good idea. Children taking group or private lessons may rent a helmet for as little as $3 a day.
