Free Ski Demos for Skiers 65+ on Tuesdays!

We believe that skiing starts when you learn to walk and never has to end. We hate to hear that when someone reaches their 50th, 60th, or 70th birthday, they buckle their boots, hang up their skis, and call it quits.

We can all get inspired by Klaus Obermeyer, who started the well known and highly respected apparel company that took his last name. Klaus, now 95, skis every day of the season, just as he’s done since he was young. His slogan? “The days you don’t ski,
you don’t get back.”

So what about you? Have you been told you had to turn in your pass, or are you still going strong? We’re offering our ski veterans (those 65 and over) FREE performance ski demos on Tuesdays through the season. You have no excuse!

The fine print: Free Rentals on Performance Ski Demos only ($35 value). Setup includes performance skis & bindings. Boots not included, but can be rented for $10. Free Demo Program valid on Tuesdays only; pick up skis Monday from 7-8 pm or Tuesday anytime, and return skis Tuesday evening or Wednesday by 10am. Reservations are not available on Free Demo skis, and quantity is limited. Paying customers’ requests are filled first. Shep’s reserves the right to modify the program at any time.
