What is the WinterKids Passport?

The WinterKids Passport is an annual family membership that gives kids ages 5–17 free and discounted tickets at ski areas, skating rinks, trails, and more across Maine.

How much does a membership cost?

An annual family membership is $40 for up to 5 people. Additional family members can be added for $10 each.

When does my membership expire?

Your family membership is valid until the end of the first September after you sign up. Most Passport deals are winter activities, and those individual offers typically expire at the end of the snow season in March (exact dates vary by location).

Who can be included in a family membership?

A parent or guardian is the primary member and can add up to 4 family members — typically your children, spouse, or others who will redeem offers with you.

What if we have more than five people in our family?

You can add additional members for $10 per person. Contact Josh Harrington at jharrington@winterkids.org for assistance.

Is the Passport available outside of Maine?

The WinterKids Passport covers Maine locations only. For families in New Hampshire or Michigan, separate Ski NH and MSIA Passports are available.

Can I share my membership with another family?

No. Each membership is designed for one household and is non-transferable.

How do I access the Passport once I join?

After you sign up, you’ll receive a welcome email with instructions to download the free WinterKids Passport app. Log in through the mobile app to view and redeem this season’s deals.

How do I redeem an offer?

When visiting a participating location, open the WinterKids Passport app, select the deal, and show it at the ticket counter or designated spot.

How many times can my family use each deal?

Each eligible child can redeem each offer at least once. Some partners may also include discounts for adults.

Do I need to purchase an adult ticket to use a free child ticket?

Many of the free junior ticket offers require the purchase of a full-priced adult ticket. Details are listed in each offer in the app.

What kinds of activities are included?

The Passport includes downhill skiing/snowboarding, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, ice skating, snowshoeing/winter hiking, and discounts on outdoor gear.

Where can I see a full list of deals?

Deals are listed in the mobile app and in our seasonal deal guide.
