Ski School

THE FIRST

THE HISTORY

The Prato Nevoso ski resort was founded in 1966, thanks to the initiative of a Savonese entrepreneur: Giacomo Dodero.

Initially there were two plants in “conca”; a baby for beginners and the yellow ski lift; to impart the first lessons there was a single ski instructor: Albertino Pons.

In the spring of 1967 the two “locals” Piero Siccardi and Francesco Allegro passed the exam by Allievo Maestro and in the 67′-68 ‘season the Prato Nevoso Ski School was born with a staff of four Masters (Rino Ricca, Piero Sicccardi, Francesco Allegro , and the Director Albertino Pons) who was however employed by the company that ran the plants.

During the ’70 -’71 season the second big step: the school becomes permanently independent, providing itself with a staff of nine Masters.
