I found out about it the night before. They do this twice a year. You can sign up for email alerts at http://www.copowersports.com/ (http://www.copowersports.com/)

They also do a snowmobile demo.

There were a dozen or so expert riders for about 40 of us. We split into groups and worked on starts, braking, corners, jumps, body position, etc. It was really helpful to have someone watch, give feedback and ride each section over and over. At 3 they turned us loose for open riding. Great deal for $10...even included lunch.

This was the first time I’ve ridden Thunder Valley, and I found it to be much more challenging than Watkins.
