Bessemer Area High School Grades 9-12, will have the opportunity to go to Powderhorn on Wednesday March 18th for a day of skiing/snowboarding. The permissions slips will be going home with students today, 3/4/2026. Please be sure to turn those in as soon as possible, so that we can get a number for the ski hill. Once they have the number of people, they will generate an online link for parents to read and sign the liability waiver and get the lift ticket/rental.
We are very excited for this opportunity!
