Event Details

Ever wanted to try nordic sit-skiing? Now’s your chance! Join SCI BC and Whistler Adaptive Sports for a day on the groomed cross-country ski trails of Callaghan!

We’re excited to offer two days of Nordic sit-skiing! Join our friends from Whistler Adaptive Sports Program for an exciting time touring the trails of Whistler Olympic Park. These free ski days, which will take place on February 5 and March 12, are open to all peers regardless of their experience. Whistler Adaptive Sports will provide all the necessary skiing equipment (sit-skis and poles) and will have instructors on hand to help transfer, teach, and guide you. They will also help ensure you’re using proper technique and can answer any questions that you may have!
This event is fully booked, but please contact Peter at pchisholm@sci-bc.ca to be added to the waitlist in case anyone cancels. 

Some important details:

  • Transportation to the event is not provided.

  • Please dress appropriately for cold weather (gloves, toques, winter jacket, etc.) and be prepared to spend the majority of your time outside—don’t worry though, it’s absolutely beautiful!
