Winter in Maine has a special kind of magic! Crisp air, soft powder, and the promise of adventure around every corner. And on January 4th from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., families from across the state will gather at Lost Valley Ski Area in Auburn for a morning packed with fun, laughter, and WinterKids community spirit.

This year’s WinterKids Family Day offers exclusive perks for WinterKids App Family Members, making it the perfect time to hit the slopes with the crew. Members will enjoy one free junior all-day lift ticket with the purchase of a full-priced adult all-day ticket, plus discounted lift tickets for siblings and accompanying adults. The only requirement? Make sure you have an active WinterKids Passport membership. Everything else is as simple as grabbing your gear and embracing the mountains. Full details and any special terms can be found directly in the mobile app.

And while skiing is always exhilarating, let’s be honest: not everyone emerges from the slopes gracefully. My girlfriend, for example, has gone skiing exactly two times and managed to injure herself both times.

Statistically speaking, she’s now 2-for-2, which technically makes her the most consistent athlete I know. She says she might try again at Lost Valley…as long as they offer a loyalty punch card for first-aid visits.
Whether you’re a seasoned skier, a wobbly beginner, or someone who just wants to enjoy hot cocoa and cheer from the lodge, WinterKids Family Day is the perfect way to kick off the new year.
Want to join in? Learn more about the WinterKids Passport at winterkids.org/passport and get ready for a day of snowy adventure, family bonding, and memories you’ll laugh about for years.
