Please join us for the annual Troop 2 Ski Trip to Shawnee Peak, Maine. This event is loads of fun, and is well attended. We stay in a single lodge, with scouts located on two floors and adults on the ground floor. Adults are present at the mountain and in the chalet throughout the day. Many adults also ski and are on the slopes with the scouts.
Our accommodations are within walking distance of the mountain, and we also shuttle the scouts to the base on a regular schedule.
Lodging, lift tickets, and rentals are included in the event. Scouts can earn the Snow Sports merit badge, as well we learning to ski and snowboard.
We stay right on the property of Shawnee Peak, at the Shawnee Peak House, a 10-bedroom self-service guesthouse. Each room features a private bath. The common area offers a fully-equipped kitchen, double fireplace, games, coin-operated Bumper pool table, cable TV, DVD player, phone and WIFI. The Peak House also gives you close proximity to Shawnee Peak's vast ski trail network.
