Ski & Boarding Scholarships available from Como Park

St. Paul Parks and Recreation offers snowboard and ski lessons every winter at Como Park. The ski center is seasonally headquartered in the golf clubhouse located, across the street from Como Lake, at 1431 Lexington Pkwy North, St. Paul, MN 55102. Ski and snowboard equipment is available for rent and Cozy’s Pub at Como Park serves burgers and salads, hot and cold drinks. Just a short walk from the building are 15acres groomed for cross country skiing and 150 vertical feet for downhill sports on “Mount Como.”
     The Como Park Snowsports Booster Club supports the community ski area operated by the City of St. Paul Parks and Recreation Department. Our mission is to passionately support snow sports for the diverse youth and families of our urban community in an accessible, safe and fun learning environment while promoting a healthy, active lifestyle.
