Chester Bowl’s opening date for 2018 is December 8th! The lift will run Saturday and Sunday 11-4:30, and our first night skiing of the year is Monday, December 10th, 4:30-8:30pm. Day passes are $10 for those 18 and under, and $15 for adults 19+. For pricing on season passes and ski season rentals (snowboards are sold out and we don’t do daily rentals) see this link. Â
Equipment Fitting nights update
Did you miss our equipment lottery sessions on 10/22 and 10/23? You may still have the opportunity to rent equipment for the season.
We do not have any snowboards remaining.
While our equipment fitting nights have included, we do still have some gear available. Please call the chalet at 218-724-9832 to sign your family up for their ski fitting time.
Please note that this availability is subject to changes as people call in, and we cannot guarantee that the right sized gear will be available when your family arrives for their fitting.
Equipment Lottery Final details
If you signed up for our equipment lottery pre-registration, you should have received an email from us letting you know which of the four equipment lottery sessions to attend. If you did not, please check your spam filters and junk mail. If you still didn’t get it, please email sam@chesterbowl.org for more information.
If you missed the pre-registration, you still do have an opportunity to rent skis. Please come to the fourth lottery session on Tuesday, October 23rd, 7pm at Vineyard Church, 1533 Arrowhead Road. You would not need to do any online-registration in advance at this point, but please arrive early to sign in. Every year so far we have been able to get ski gear to each person who attended the lottery. However, if you were not part of the pre-registration, it is very unlikely that there will still be snowboard gear remaining.
Only one adult from each family needs to attend the lottery, and children do not need to be there (but are welcome if that is what works for your family).

Fall Fest raises $7,926.38!
Thank you so much to everyone who donated at the Fall Fest 2018 admission gates! Thanks to your generosity, the event raised $7,926.38. All of the money raised goes directly to our scholarship fund. Last year we awarded over $26,000 to families that would not have been able to afford to participate in our summer and winter programs without financial assistance. The amount raised is equal to providing around 300 days of summer camp to families receiving scholarships! Thank you!
