Welch Village Ski Area is proud to be a part of the Minnesota Ski Areas 4th Grade Passport Program!

The Minnesota Ski Areas Association (MNSAA) and its members are excited to offer the 4th Grade Passport for the 2024/25 season. The 4th Grade Passport offers every 4th grade student the opportunity to ski and snowboard for free in Minnesota. The goal of the program is to help introduce families to how much fun they can have together outside in the winter. 

Passport applications are available through the Friday before Presidents Day. Each Passport is $39.95 (tax included). Once paid, there are no additional fees for lift tickets. 

What does Welch Village offer for 4th Grade Passport Holders?

4th Grade Passport holders will be issued a total of 3 free visits on any day Welch Village is open during the 2024/2025 season. The 4th Grade Passport card must be presented at the main chalet lift ticket windows before each of the three visits.   

4th Grade Passport lift tickets will NOT be issued to members of a USSA, D-Team, or traveling ski school participant.
