General

To the valued members, guests and volunteers of the Telemark Community: The Telemark Nordic Club would like to wish you all a safe, healthy, and joyous holiday season, and New Year.  Enjoy Telemark this Holiday season with your friends and family! 

The skiing and snowshoeing at Telemark are still “Early Season” in this very low snow year but we are open and will remain open everyday through the entire holiday season including Christmas and New Year’s day.  Check out the full holiday Schedule

Starting Dec 16th the Telemark Daylodge will be open daily on modified hours. Please go to our Hours of Operation webpage for details. Everybody is welcome to come up and pick up your season pass, go for a ski or snowshoe and have a hot chocolate.

We have enough snow to ski and snowshoe but conditions are still “Early Season”. All ski trails are groomed but they are not in mid winter condition and there is not a track in many places but, in general, the skiing is safe and quite good on a 10cm packed base. We need to have a 20cm base before we can do regular grooming with our Pisten Bully snowcat. So we will do some snowmobile grooming to improve conditions as needed and until we get more snow. Snowshoeing on all the trails is open and safe but base is thin.

Here’s and easy way to help support the Team Telemark Youth Competitive Program. Simply purchase gift cards online through ‘FundScrip’ and use the gift cards to do all your regular shopping or to give as gifts. It works great, especially for your grocery shopping and it costs you nothing.

There are over 250 participating retailers. They will donate a portion of sales to Telemark through FundScip. Click Here for a quick list of retailers with the % donation.

Last season was our longest season ever as we had skiing and snowshoeing from early November to April. All our prices remain unchanged from last year.  An adult season pass is paid off in only 11 visits and you will have the flexibility to come to Telemark whenever you want, for any amount of time. Additionally, with a season pass, you are automatically a Club member and can participate in one of our many programs. There is again a 10% discount on selected items at local xc ski retailer Kelowna Cycle and a 25% discount on rentals at Telemark for all Season Pass holders. There is one more draw in our Early-Bird prize draw – Total draw prize value of over $1,000 (Generously provided by our sponsor partners Fresh Air. Experience and Kelowna Cycle).

Come join the fun on Saturday Oct 28th and help us get ready for winter.  We are hosting a work party from 9:00 AM until noon to…split firewood, paint, do trail maintenance  and accomplish a few other odd jobs before the season starts.

We will break at noon for lunch. The Club will host a free BBQ with burgers, hot dogs, snacks and drinks.  

The Telemark Annual General Meeting will take place right after lunch at 1pm.  The AGM is a great opportunity to meet the Telemark Board of Directors and find out what is going on in the Club.

We hope to see you there.
