Year in Review
Last year’s workday placed an emphasis on reducing overhanging brush that becomes especially problematic once it’s heavily laden with snow. Although we didn’t get around to clearing all 40km of trail, a lot was accomplished. We also put our new heavy duty Stihl brush trimmers to good use. The trail mower hooked up to our quad was effective until the quad died on us. All in all, a TON of work goes into prepping trails for first snow.
Membership numbers regained their previous heights. We continue to see good numbers at both Sandilands and Quarry Oaks. Skiers continue to purchase both season and daily ski passes and the funds from those sales go a long way to keeping our club viable.
Our club sent out thank you decals of the club logo to prior season pass holders, along with a physical newsletter. Hopefully those decals will find their way onto vehicles, laptops, water bottles and continue to market and promote the club!
Our Learn to Ski program returned to a 3 individual sessions with good support from the community.

Tech Tip
More Glide Less effort!
Your ski’s should receive a hot wax every 50-80km of skiing. A hot wax applies a GLIDE specific wax to the areas of the ski that contact the snow during the glide phase. If you haven’t applied glide wax in a while, it’s possible that you are working harder and going slower than you need to be!
Trails
Sandilands Ski Club maintains three trail clusters.
All Trail Clusters are open.
REMEMBER TO PURCHASE YOUR TRAIL PASS PRIOR TO SKIING!
Fly In Golf Course
The Fly In Golf Course trail is all about convenience. Located near the heart of the City of Steinbach, it's close enough for a quick ski when time is limited!

Quarry Oaks offers the only skate ski groomed trail in Southeast Manitoba, along with over 12km of pristine classic tracks winding through the oaks and rolling terrain of the Quarry Oaks Golf Course.
Sandilands Forest
The trails in Sandilands Forest provide over 35km of single tracked trail that wind up and down ancient glacial moraines and through mature stands of Red Pine, Birch and Poplar trees.
