Consider Marking Your Kid's Skis

Just a suggestion...

If your child is skiing classical and is doing trade-ins at Spring Street Sports there will be a number of other kids there with skis that look exactly like yours.

If your child is skating and owns Atomics they will be in a group where most of the kids are skating on Atomics.

Poles are even worse. If we have lots of kids there is certain to be a considerable amount of duplication because there are not that many brands of poles.

When the kids are done skiing, many of them dump their stuff haphazardly. Marking their equipment can be a terrific aid in gathering things up at the end of a session, especially if you have more than one skier enrolled. It can also help prevent other kids and their parents from accidentally picking up your child's stuff.

Marking your child's equipment can be as simple as putting a piece of tape with their name or initials on it. Using colored tape and/or putting it in a certain spot can make it easier to pick things out from a distance.
