2014 Government cutbacks and closure of the Marchand Wayside Park during the winter brought forth the decision eliminate the Sandilands Classic Event for the time being and channel our energy into establishing a Jackrabbits program. Jackrabbits is a program that introduces younger families into skiing as a sport that can be enjoyed by the whole family. A new definition of braving the cold winter was introduced and 2014 was the coldest winter since 1898. Despite the cold 2014 was one of the longest ski seasons in years as we trails were packed in late November and we groomed until late March.
