For the Last Minute Christmas Shopper
TOP 5 Gifts to purchase at Whitewater Ski Resort:
- Gift Cards - The ultimate gift! They can be used on lift tickets, rentals, snow school programs, retail and food and beverage (including Coal Oil Johnny's Pub). They are available online (denominations of $40, $60, $80 and $100, when purchased online they will take 48 hours to be processed) or in person at 602 Lake Street (any denomination) or over the phone 250-354-4944. Did you know that Gift Cards can also be reloaded?
- Powder Plus Card - You will be giving the gift that keeps on giving! Not only will the bearer receive 2 free days of skiing/riding, but they will continually be thinking about you throughout the winter as they are able to purchase discounted lift tickets all season long.
- Whitewater schwag! - Season passholders and Powder Plus card holders get 10% off all retail items, and our Nelson office has a very colorful selection of new items to choose from. The office is stocked with toques, headbands, NEW t-shirts, Arc'Teryx coats & vests, ski movies, mugs, ball caps, Whitewater Cookbooks and the NEW Whitewater Cooks sauces! Our Nelson office is open every day (8am - 5pm) EXCEPT Christmas day and New Years Day.
- Snow School programs - Many of our Snow School programs offer drop-in rates which is a great way to get a few tips on your skiing/riding style without much pre-planning. Ladies Day and Freeride Fridays are adult programs that include a lesson AND lunch at Coal Oil Johnny's Pub. With a gift like this you'll be helping someone improve their skiing AND feeding them lunch!
- Your time - Not a skier? No problem. You don't need to be a skier or a snowboarder to come up to the moutain and be a part of the excitement. Your time is more valuable than any gift, so grab that special someone and head up to the resort to try out our fat tire bikes in the Nordic Centre, come for lunch at the Fresh Tracks Caf? and be a part of the winter magic! Our resort will be open regular hours every day (8:45 am - 3:30pm) EXCEPT Christmas day which will be 11 am -3pm.
Happy Holidays!
