Get Out & Play Programs
Sponsored by
YSA's Get Out & Play program provides after-school activities for your kids on early release days. YSA partners with parent volunteers, Basin Recreation, Deer Valley, Find Your Path Utah, Park City Mountain, Park City Ice Arena, Utah Olympic Park, White Pine Touring, Young Riders, and Woodward to offer affordable programs that give every child the opportunity to try new sports in a safe supervised environment.
Elementary students in 1st through 5th can try downhill skiing, snowboarding, cross country skiing, freestyle skiing, freeride snowboarding, ski jumping, mountain biking, figure skating, speed skating, ice hockey, triathlon, camping skills, and indoor action sports. Program fees include instruction, transportation from schools to participating venues (except for mountain biking, triathlon, and camping) and lift tickets where applicable. Students with financial need are offered fee waivers less a small commitment fee and are provided equipment for use during the program.
New Partial Scholarship Available!
We want to provide the opportunity for as many kids as possible to participate in our programs. If you earn less than $50,000 annually, please select an available Scholarship ticket to complete your registration. However, if you earn more than $50,000 annually but less than $120,000 annually and the registration fee is a burden for your family, you may qualify for a partial scholarship. Please complete the Partial Scholarship Application linked here here to help us understand your financial challenges. The information you choose to share with us is confidential and will be used only for purposes of determining your eligibility for a partial scholarship. You may be asked to provide documentation (i.e., paystubs, tax forms, or W-2s) to confirm your income and/or other financial information.
Winter ski and snowboard programs open mid October.
