As we get closer to being able to open the hills at Dryden Ski Club, we are reviewing our COVID policies, checking over the lift equipment and getting our staffing in place.
At this time, we are planning on opening for Wednesday, Feb 17th for night skiing from 5pm to 9pm.
Our weekly hours will be as follows until further notice:
Wednesdays 5pm to 9pm
Fridays 5pm to 9pm
Saturdays 11am to 4pm
Sundays 11am to 4pm
Please take time to review the COVID policies which are accessible from the main page of this website, especially those around chalet access. We look forward to seeing you on the hills and trails at Dryden Ski Club in the very near future!
Are you a club member getting out on the XC Ski trails during this fantastic weather? If so, then sign up to participate in the Cross Country Ski Ontario COVID Challenge and help us compete against other clubs from across the province for total distance skied. It's as simple as putting your name in the online spreadsheet and then entering the total distance you ski on a specific day. It's also a great way to track your skiing over the season. The Challenge runs from Jan 1st to March 31st, so there is lots of time to put in some kilometers.
So click on the link below, enter your name and start filling in the column every time you go out for a ski!
If you have any questions, feel free to email us at drydenski@gmail.com or message us on the facebook page or the Dryden XC trails facebook group.

NOTE: YOU MUST BE A MEMBER OF DRYDEN SKI CLUB TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS CHALLENGE
The Dryden Ski Club (DSC) will not be able to open the Chalet or alpine skiing until January 9th 2021. DSC will continue to do our part and implement our COVID Operational Plan and Safety Plan to help reduce the spread of COVID-19. DSC will operate in compliance with the advice, recommendations and instructions of the public health. Operating in these unprecedented times is a change in our behaviour. To ensure we can have an enjoyable ski season let's follow the rules, be respectful and humble with each other.
Over the next few weeks DSC volunteers will continue to groom our cross country trails within 12-24 hours of snowfall accumulation. We are hoping that users will place money in the drop-box or purchase a cross country season pass at www.skidryden.com
Once we are able to open up fully we will ensure we maintain our distances and follow the recommended changes for 2021. DSC staff/volunteers and Executive look forward to seeing everyone in the New Year.
Those that ski together - stay together - Stay Safe Dryden
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
