WELCOME TO WHISTLER

Welcome to the 24th annual Gay Ski Week in Whistler. This year marks a very special milestone in our resort community with Whistler Mountain celebrating their 50th season. Whistler is still young at heart and looking fabulous earning the #1 Resort in the world by Ski Magazine, again!

We are thrilled to welcome the hysterical legendary Queens to the Night of Comedy titled OH SNOW SHE DIDNT starring artist BIANCA DEL RIO, JACKIE BEAT, SHERRY VINE & VARLA JEAN MERMAN presented by media partners OUTtv and the Whistler Question on Wednesday, January 27th.

Whistler Pride has brought in some incredible talent from around the world to headline the festival nightlife including YINON YAHEL (Tel Aviv) ALAIN JACKINSKY (Montreal) DJ PHIL B (SFO) and DJ BRET LAW (Seattle) and the performance artist known as FLAVA. We love showcasing some of our local Vancouver area talent like DJs DEL STAMP, SOLLORS, MR COX, LANDONJAMES, QUEST, FOXY MORON, and KITKAT along with performers APRIL OPEEL and PATRICK MASSE.

We hope you are able to get out and enjoy some of the award-winning facilities here in Whistler. Take in one of the incredible zipline tours, perhaps a backcountry snowmobile tour, or the rush of the Whistler Sliding Centre on a bobsled or skeleton! Whistler has more than just skiing so get out there and experience it for yourself.

Thank you for being part of the magic of the 24th annual Whistler Pride and Ski Festival. We really appreciate you choosing to vacation with us and celebrate diversity both on and off the slopes! We trust you will make many incredible memories.

As Premier of the Province of British Columbia, I am pleased to welcome everyone to the 24th Annual Whistler Pride and Ski Festival.

Through the proud support of the provincial government and the Resort Municipality of Whistler, this years Whistler Pride and Ski Festival features the renowned Ice Queens as headliners for their Night of Comedy. With a variety of exhilarating social events and opportunities to explore the alpine delights of Canadas premier ski resort, this event is sure to be fun and exciting for everyone attending.

Bringing an event of this magnitude together requires so much effort and dedication, and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those whose hard work makes this Festival a success every year.

Sincerely,

Christy ClarkPremier

LETTER FROM THE PREMIER


GREETINGS FROM THE MAYOR

On behalf of the Resort Municipality of Whistler, welcome to everyone at the 24th annual Whistler Pride and Ski Festival from January 23 to 31, 2016. The iconic festival is a highlight on Whistlers winter event calendar, attracting guests from 26 countries!

The Resort Municipality of Whistler is pleased to support the Whistler Pride and Ski Festival though tourism funding from the Province of British Columbia. This year, our investment is in Whistler Prides Night of Comedy Oh Snow She Didnt.

We hope you enjoy the festival and have time to experience much of what Whistler has to offer from the great variety of mountain terrain for skiing and snowboarding, to cross-country trails, to skating, and even sliding sports, as well as the variety of spas, restaurants, pubs, shops and entertainment throughout the Village.

Whistler was the proud Host Mountain Resort for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games and I encourage you to have your own Olympic experience: cross-country ski at Whistler Olympic Park, watch or try sliding sports at the Whistler Sliding Centre, or go ice skating at Whistler Olympic Plaza in the heart of Whistler Village.

Have a wonderful visit!

Regards,

Mayor Nancy Wilhelm-MordenResort Municipality of Whistler

Rescued boarder thanks communityJulie Abrahamsen spent three nights alone in the backcountry

Alyssa [email protected]

The day after rescuers found her near Wedge Creek, Julie Abrahamsen logged on to her Facebook account to thank the community for its support during her harrowing ordeal in the backcountry.

After three rough days in the mountain, I have never been happier to be back in civilization and dear Whistler, the 20-year-old snowboarder wrote on a popular Whistler Facebook page. Thanks to my concerned dad, the best roomies, a good rescue staff, good doctors and all the friendly, caring, helping people/ seasoners of

Whistler! Love you and take care out there.

Both rescuers and the community were elated when Abrahamsen, from Norway, was found alive and well about four to five kilometres from the Whistler Blackcomb boundary, on Saturday (Jan. 24).

It was a very joyous moment, said Brad Sills, manager of Whistler Search and Rescue (WSAR), during a press conference on Saturday. These moments are big for us because we dont get enough of them, quite simply. To find someone with a strong spirit who was able to endure the last three nights weather,

superflyziplines.com604 932 0647


Q Are there any additional perks to my 7 day, Mid Week or Weekend Pass?A Yes, not only did you save some on the bundle pass, you get to use the express

entry line at some of the busiest events and you have the flexibility of doing as much or as little as you want! Its sort of like a Season Pass. You can also flash your pass to our retail partners and save or get a special gift!

Q Are there gay ski/snowboard guides for all levels of skiers/riders?A Yes, we have ski guides available every day for all levels of skiers & riders so

come up and ski/ride with your level group. There are also lesbian led groups!

Q Are tickets transferable or refundable?A Regrettably No.

Q My partner and I are looking to get married. Can we do this while at Whistler Pride?A Yes, we have several options available for you; just contact us at guest services.

Q What are our options to get back to Vancouver?A We have several options for you, visit our website under Plan Your Trip or see us

at guest services.

Q Is it too late to volunteer?A No, come on down to the guest services suite and talk with our Volunteer Manager

Karen or one of our volunteer leads.

Q What can I do if I do not ski or snowboard? Will I be bored?A There are hundreds of things for you to do and you will not be bored! Here

are a couple examples: Sight See on Whistler & Blackcomb Ride the Whistler Village Gondola and then take the Peak 2 Peak Gondola for a birds eye view of these massive mountains, take in one of the culinary or wellness seminars, go dog sledding or fly through the forest like a Jedi Knight or Indiana Jones with SuperFly Ziplines or luxuriate in one of the spas. Stop by our guest services desk for more ideas and suggestions!

Q When is Whistler Pride 2017?A January 21-29, 2017 Celebrate our 25th Anniversary. The host hotel, Aava

Whistler, has a fantastic rate if you book by June 30th, 2016. $139*/person/night for a 7 nights & full week womens or mens pass (based on double occupancy). Ask for details.

Q Why should we book through your official booking channel?A This is one of the only tools we have available to give accurate numbers to our

resort partners in the success of the festival and ensure the continued value we are able to give to you, the consumer. The alternative to this is diminished support as it is unclear who is actually staying for the festival which may result in higher future costs and ties our hands as organizers what we can ask for in the future. There is the lowest price guarantee so you can be assured you are getting the best rate available.

Q Why does Whistler Pride limit capacity and venue hours?A British Columbia has some of the most strict liquor laws in North America. Every

year Whistler Pride has to apply and negotiate with the various government bodies which set limits to capacity, venue usage, hours of operation and type of entertainment.

Q Why are the liquor prices so expensive?A The resort and the government of British Columbia sets a minimum price drinks

are allowed to be sold at. The venues keep 100% of all bar sales. Whistler Prides source of revenue is through ticket sales & sponsorship only.

Q Why do we have to pay to go to the Aprs Ski?A Admission for the Aprs Ski events helps to pay for the complimentary ski/

snowboard program as well as fund some of the other festival costs. The conference centre is still currently the only venue large enough to accommodate our group. The Aprs ski also provides an opportunity for some of our community members to become involved with the festival to raise awareness about their organization while raising funds.

Starting from rate, all rates quoted in Canadian Dollars, subject to applicable taxes, insurance and/or other fees maybe additional, space is limited, subject to general availability at time of reservation. Some restrictions may apply.

NOTE TO SKIERS & RIDERSAll skiers/riders of all abilities are invited to join this complimentary service and be guided safely around the mountains. It is a great way to meet new people! Please allow at least 45 minutes from the village to the designated meeting spot.

Uploading tip: All of Whistler Blackcombs RFID scanners will be located on your left hand side as you approach the lift. It is important that you keep your Access Card on the left hand side of your body. A pocket on your jacket is ideal given the height of the scanner. Keep your Access Card away from your cell phone or any aluminum, as it may interfere with the RFID chip.
