What is Mountain
Boarding?
Mountain Boarding,
also known as All-Terrain Boarding, is a
cross
between a skateboard
and a snowboard. They are designed to be
used on slopes covered by grass or
sometimes dirt.
The idea behind the
mountain board is to get down a hill
having as
much FUN on the way down as
possible!

It’s time to rock it
at Hilltop in our own Rock Band Studio
equipped with drums, electric guitar,
base guitar, key board, and microphones
for vocals.

Who likes to Cook?
Better yet, who likes
to Eat?!
 
Cooking has been added
to our program so you will have an
opportunity to learn the basics taught
by our own Hilltop chefs. You will learn
skills in prep-work, baking, grilling
and so much more. Although if you are
like us, th e best part of
cooking is the
sampling of your work
that comes after! Yum,
yum!!

We have added a
pasta bar to our ever growing menu. What
does this mean? You will be able to
choose pasta as a meal or to compliment
the main course at dinner. The pasta bar
will offer a variety of pasta types and
sauces or you may choose to just go
plain. Delicious!
