30th Telus Winter Classic |March 3-4 | Buy a Ticket or Register a Team

The Whistler Blackcomb Foundation Telus Winter Classic is celebrating their 30th anniversary; and it is time to put a team together of buy tickets.


The Whistler Blackcomb Foundation are an incredible organization who support most good causes throughout the Sea to Sky corridor and they are incredibly important to the Whistler Mountain Ski Club and our community.


Not only did they donate $250,000 towards the construction of the Dave Murray National Training Centre which provides us with a world class racing and training venue, but they also donated to our new Timing Hut.


The Whistler Blackcomb Foundation have also pledged $300,000 as the Legacy partner in the construction of housing that we will be able to rent to our coaches.


The Telus Winter Classic is the Foundation’s primary fundraiser and it also happens to be a great couple of days! Therefore I would like to encourage anyone who would like to enter a team, or buy a ticket to the Winetastic event at the Fairmont, or the Gala event at the Whistler Conference Centre.


Many thanks for your support of the Whistler Blackcomb Foundation and the great causes that they support in return.
