Hill ski hill rebounds with new board and $40,000 in-kind support
After winter low attendance and aging gear, the Dawson Creek Ski and Recreation Association restructured. New board member Gevatkoff and volunteers raised $40,000 in-kind, reopened the hill on December 22 for the holidays, and ran through spring break with 4,500 visits expected, 927 with 14 area schools, 78 season passes, 1,250 rentals, and weekly beginner lessons. The association now seeks $900,000 for a new lift, with city funds and private gifts contributing $75,000 so far, plus a plan to renovate interiors and host a late May AGM.
