B.C. residents can ski and ride for half price at participating ski areas in celebration of Family Day Feb. 8.
This offer is a partnership between 30 ski areas, including Silver Star Mountain Resort, the Canada West Ski Areas Association and Destination B.C.
“Enjoying the snow in B.C.’s beautiful mountains is becoming a tradition for BC residents on Family Day,” said Cynthia Thomas, with the CWSAA.
“Skiing is a great way to connect with family, friends and nature. If you’ve never tried skiing or if you’re thinking of getting back into it, the Family Day offers provide a great opportunity.”
Participating resorts will offer B.C. residents 50 per cent off day tickets (lift and trail passes) on Family Day. This discount will be based on the regular ticket window prices and covers downhill skiers and snowboarders at 23 ski areas, plus cross-country skiers at six nordic ski areas.
B.C. residents account for 56 per cent of skier visits in the province.
“We’ve already had a strong start to the ski season and our province has a glittering array of world-class ski resorts to choose from,” said Marsha Walden, with Destination B.C.
“This promotion gives families another great reason to spend time together, to refresh and reconnect. We hope everyone will enjoy all that B.C. has to offer at this time of year: skiing, boarding, winter festivals, and so much more.”
