The 2010 Pride House organizing committee released the findings for the first ever Olympic and Paralympic Pride House Pavilion.  The report outlines the successes and learning experiences in creating the Pride House Pavilion for the Vancouver Winter Games.  The report will be passed on to future organizing groups for London 2012, and Sochi  in 2014 to help break down the barriers of homophobia and transphobia that exist in the sports world and in general.

"Sport has the power to help address homophobic and transphobic violence and harassment," said Dean Nelson, Pride House Founder and Executive Producer. "We hope that what we learned from these past games will continue in London 2012 and Sochi in 2014."

Huge fluffy snow flakes
Winter Pride, Whistler
Wednesday, 11 November 2009 00:00
The Village is electric with huge fluffy snow flakes falling down to the village and the announcement that WB will open this weekend for Cornucopia.  Now, if my memory serves me correct in 1997/98 season we had a stellar summer, awesome fall and an early opening with record breaking snow!  In fact that season our average base was around 400cm and Baker broke the world record of over 100 feet of snow that season!  I feel we could be on a repeat for this coming season and I am so excited! 

Reminder that our Super Early Bird discounts will expire in the next FIVE Days (Nov. 15th) so if you have not booked your accommodation or event tickets we do suggest doing it right away.  You can book with confidence knowing you will get the best rate guaranteed
