Get ready for an exhilarating winter experience at the annual TELUS Kelowna Cup, where the thrill of the slopes meets the chance to win over $10,000 in amazing prizes!

Join us at TELUS Park and take on the Snow Cross Track in a unique and family-friendly race format. Designed for skiers and snowboarders of all skill levels, this competition operates on the exciting principle of time duplication. Participants aim to match their first run's time down the track, and the closest match secures the grand prize. It's not about being the fastest; it's about precision and strategy!

Don't just race—impress! Dress to the nines and stand a chance to win additional prizes for "Best Dressed." The competition isn't just on the track; it's a celebration of style and skill.

Powderhounds

This year's event proudly supporting the Powderhounds. Powderhounds Adaptive Snowsports is a program of People in Motion; a local non-profit and a registered charity.

The Kelowna & District Society for People In Motion is unique in its scope of practice and programs. They work to develop and enhance the lives and informal supports for persons with disAbilities – recognizing that the social isolation and obstacles inherent to the disability or adaptive needs can prevent or hinder opportunities to engage in healthy active living activities and relationship development. Bringing people together – for a common purpose and helping to break down barriers by providing inclusive, adaptive support and services is the heart of what we do at People In Motion.

The Powderhounds program is designed to assist anyone at any age with physical, cognitive, or sensory challenges who want to enjoy the slopes at Big White.

The Powderhounds program offers instruction specifically tailored to the needs of each participant. A fully volunteer workforce of certified Adaptive Ski Instructors, ensure access to fun out on the snow for everyone. Instructors provide upright ski instruction with whatever aides may be necessary, and they also offer sit-skiing for those who need additional support.
