Let’s go skiing!

Parkland members and guests will be exploring Central Alberta this winter and running beginner day trips out to the mountains, all at no extra cost! Our monthly gatherings, when allowed, will be outdoor ski and campfire fun at local trails the 2nd Tuesday of Jan, Feb and March of 2021.

All meetings and gatherings will make Covid safety measures a 1st priority.

Everyone is welcome to join us!
