Itinerary:

Weekday fun, why not. Snow Valley just opened and I'm willing to run this event for anyone with some free time before the New Year.

Let's head up to Barrie for some tubing and then snowshoeing!.

After picking up our lift tickets ($20) we will beat the crowds and go tubing for a couple of hours. No equipment is needed for this portion of the outing.

After tubing we'll have some lunch and warm up, before heading back out to the snow shoe trails for the afternoon. You can rent equipment if you need snow shoes at Snow Valley ($15) and they have several trails ranging from easy to difficult. This is a great chance to get in more snowshoeing or give it a whirl for the first time.

Following our trip, we'll head down to the St. Louis Bar and Grill back on Dunlop St. close to the 400 for a drink and snack.

Should we be short of drivers, they will get priority on the waiting list.

If you are meeting at the event instead of the carpool please, meet outside the front of the snow tubing chalet near the fireplace @ 10 am.

Required Items to Bring:
Appropriate winter boots! They must have good grip as the surface can get very slippery.
Snowpants, or other waterproof layers.
