GW-115 WinterPRIDE eNewsletter (Apr. 23/10)

Greetings from Whistler, !

Spring has sprung, but we still have some great skiing 319cm (126") base! If you like it hard ski in the morning and mountian bike in the afternoon or if you prefer to shred it on soft Spring snow then mountain bike or chill in the morning and shred it in the afternoon... lots to do as our two seasons come together. This is the final weekend for the World Ski & Snowboard festival so lots of great free concerts and entertainment!

This weekend is also skiOUT! So come and join the Vancouver & Whistler boyz & galz as they shred up Whistler on Saturday. Meet 10AM at the top of Whistler Roundhouse Light Board. Look for Peter's Rainbow Flag. Apres will be at Black's Pub.
