[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where should we go? Don't want to drive more than 3 hours max. And would prefer if there are other things to do. Will we all need a training course? [/quote]

You can either put your kids in ski school for the day. Or, if you want to learn too, you can probably get a family lesson.

Will cost you around $600 all-in for the day, equipment included.[/quote]

How old are the kids?  Many ski instructors do not recommend adults and kids taking lessons together.  Much different learning curve.  Put the kids in all-day ski school, and you and DH either take an adult group lesson, or private.

If you want to go for the day, Liberty is my favorite.  [b]We just went to Wisp this weekend and it has a lot of nice beginner runs. [/b] We didn't do ski school this time, but my DD did it when she was around 6 or 7.  Not as organized as Liberty.  DD has always had good experience with her instructors at Liberty.

Wisp has an indoor pool, tubing, and a mountain roller-coaster that is fun for the kids.  It's an easy 3 hour drive.  The hotel is a little dated, but super convenient to the slopes.  [/quote]

Yeah, but you have to haul yourself and equipment up that bloody hill first. Not easy for 4 beginners!!![/quote]
