Greetings from Whistler, ! 

Vancouver has gotten off with a bang this summer with the annual Celebration of Light fireworks competition and continues this week heading into Vancouver Pride's celebrations.  If you are in Vancouver on Sunday, August 1st for Pride please visit the Air New Zealand & GayWhistler booth.  We have some great prizes to be won with Canadian Snowmobile & ZipTrek EcoTours plus some exclusive offers from our Host Hotel the Hilton Whistler Resort & Spa and preferred partners of the Pan Pacific, Fairmont & Coast Blackcomb.  We are booth #69 right in front of the Main Stage!  Hope to see you out!

Up here in the beautiful mountain resort of Whistler - the village is creating a perfect destination to beat the summer heat with hikes up in the high alpine with walls of snow, to the magic of the refreshing spring feed lakes to hanging out on one of the many patios people watching over a frosty Whistler Beer!

Need to inject your summer with a bit of energy & excitement?  Rip it up in the back country on an ATV, navigate the raging rivers, fly through the forest on ZipLines or just hang out at the beach... all that is missing is you!
