MIX Snow Tubing [January 26] - $32 *FULL*
What better way to welcome the winter semester in Canada than to join MIX, Outdoor Club, and Power to Change in a classic winter activity: Snowtubing! For those of you who don't know what snowtubing is, you are basically brought up to the top of a hill sitting in an innertube by a lift, and then once at the top you can choose to go down in a group or alone. It requires virtually 0 skill and is a ton of fun! We have subsidized the price so it is ONLY $30! Included in ticket price: - Bus transportation to and from Chicopee Snow Park - 3 hour snowtubing lift pass Register at: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/snow-tubing-at-chicopee-tickets-54957906578?fbclid=IwAR38P-epqY59mbpIS6ZpdPmR1A6gXapXuODupb-9toaguMk870MlnypUV7A Dogsledding [March 2-3, 2019] *Registration is OPEN* ($450 including HST) Join MOC on an amazing winter wonderland trip in the Algonquin area.
