How Does It Work? 

● Students are bussed from Eddington, Holden, Holbrook, and Dedham schools to Hermon Mountain. Bussing is first come, first served. Please indicate your child needs the bussing option only if it's absolutely necessary to allow as many participants as possible. We will do our best to update this website as soon as the bus is fully booked. 

● Volunteer leaders meet students at the mountain, help with tickets, rental gear, and ensure each child gets to their lesson or has a buddy to ski/ride with. 

● Students renting equipment will receive volunteer help with gear. 

● Students with personal equipment can drop it at Holbrook School Wednesday mornings; it will be transported to the mountain. 

● Pick-up at Hermon Mountain is by 7 PM. Caregivers must arrange for transportation home. 

● Helmets are required. Rentals include helmets; Hermon may have loaners for those not renting. 

● Bussing to the mountain is provided by Holbrook Rec. 

Volunteers Needed 

No skiing or snowboarding experience required. We need support helping kids on the mountain, managing gear, and assisting with tickets. It takes a village to get all those kids off the bus, into their gear and back outside in a timely manner! HUGE thanks to all the volunteers who have made this run so well over the years!! Please complete the Holbrook Rec. volunteer form if you’re interested in helping. 

Bussing is generously paid for by Holbrook Rec.
