2021 – 2022 Ski Season News

Greetings,

Good news, it looks like we will have a more regular ski season this year than last with fewer restrictions allowing us to resume operation. We will be offering bus day trips and a week long trip this year as well as SkiMax ticket sales which Tremblant is once again offering to ski clubs, Gatineau pass sales and more.

The ski club registration available

The ski club registration system is available to purchase club memberships and SkiMax tickets. More items to purchase or sign up for will be added as soon as they become available.

Ski Club Day bus trips

With the relaxing of Covid restrictions, we will be offering our day long bus trips again. The following trips are planned:

  • March 27 to Mont Tremblant
  • April 10 to Mont Tremblant

See the trips page for more details.

Ski Max tickets sale ended on December 7th

SkiMax ticket sales will be different this year in that the club will not be handing physical tickets anymore. For sales, you will be directed to the Tremblant online ticket sales website to purchase your tickets. You will be supplied with a discount code witch will give you a 38% savings over regular ticket prices if purchased before October 26th, and a 34% saving if purchased before December 7th. You will pickup your tickets at customer service at Tremblant instead of having to collect them from us at a distribution event, which should be much more convenient for you. In previous years we had to add credit card and e-commerce system surcharges to the ticket price, so as the club is not having to handle the money for the tickets this year means you get to save those charges for even more savings. One final note about the tickets: in previous years the tickets did not have any blackout days, unfortunately Tremblant has decided to have a Christmas blackout period for SkiMax this year, which will be from December 27 till Jan 02.

Ski Club week long ski trip

The Bytown Ski Club has returned from a hiatus and finalized plans to offer members a week-long ski and boarder group package to Big White British Columbia this coming winter. We have reserved thirty hotel and air spots for participants of this ski week from Saturday January 29 through Saturday February 5, 2022. Registration for this trip starts Sept 27th.

In light of the pandemic situation, skiers and the Club have opted to depart from the successful European offering of recent years to stay in Canada this winter. To promote the safety of our members, we will entertain registration for this group trip only from people that will have obtained their double vaccination prior to the trip departure.

For more details, please see our Trips page.
