Bidding can be done in-person at the event, by phone at 604-902-2307, or by email to gscott@skisilverstar.com between hours of 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. on Saturday.
With ski season only about a month away, winter sports enthusiasts will also have a chance to purchase a SilverStar Season Pass at a marked down rate during the event.
Discounted Early Bird Pow Passes that bundles multi-day lift passes will also be available for purchase. All pre-season sales end on Wednesday, Oct. 31. Current pass holders can also avoid the line-ups and drop by to pick up their passes for the upcoming season.
