Welcome to Winter Fun! Great values, adventure awaits

Whether you are a seasoned skier or rider or just looking forward to your first bunny slope, Winterplace offers something for everyone! This year marks the 24th running of the Old North State Council's hugely popular Scouts on Skis program at Winterplace Ski Resort in Ghent, West Virginia. Located just two and a half hours north of Greensboro, the mountain is both convenient and challenging for all levels of skiers and riders. This year's basic package will have you zipping down the slopes in no time and comes complete with your lift ticket, ski rental, helmet rental and Ski School!! Meal vouchers are not included but can be purchased separately. More than 800 Scout families made the Scouts on Skis their choice for winter fun in 2025. I hope you will join us this season!!
