President’s Message – Winter is just too short!

Dear HPSC friends

Despite what your non-ski friends insist, winter is not that long in southern Ontario. In fact, we have just a couple of weeks left in our season. Skiing in the sunshine of March is the payoff for the cold and darkness of January. Luckily for our cross-country and snowshoe members the weather in the last couple of weeks means that they will likely be able to run trips to hopefully for a few more weeks. On the downhill side, we have scheduled trips on the weekends and on Mondays till the end of March so long as there are enough butts in the seats.

We are once again participating in the Ikon group sales program for the 2023/24 season. Purchasing through the HPSC group program will enter you into the possibility of earning back the value of your pass (the number of winners depends on the level of sales through our group program). If you are a current pass holder and plan to renew or plan on purchasing a new pass this year, please send a message to ikon@hpsc.ca. We will send you instructions on how to purchase through the group program.  

And finally, we are re-establishing our St. Patrick’s Day pub night tradition.  Except this time, we have a set space booked at a pub – The Quail on Yonge St, north of Rosedale subway and south of Summerhill station. I hope to see many of you on Friday night!

Cheers!

Justin Graham
