Join us on Friday, February 21 at 7 pm for an evening ski and coffee house at the Woodfine Chalet.

It will not be a full moon, so you will need headlamps! Skiers can leave at any time after dusk but we plan to have some guided ski times every half hour starting at 5:30pm.

The coffee house starts at 7pm and will feature several acts including a classical quartet, folk singers, a ukulele choir and rock duet! Some of the big names include the Classical Chicks, Southside, Mathew Macleod and High Fluoro!

Bring your own snacks and beverages!

The rental shop will be open for this event if you need to rent skis or snowshoes! You will also need to buy a night pass if you are not a member.
