Seymour Ski Club

Seymour Ski Club

THE Mount Seymour Ski Club held its annual fundraising dinner and auction on Saturday March 31 at the Deep Cove Yacht Club. It's always a great party and the kids enjoy themselves just as much as the adults. There's always great food, prizes and later on, lots of dancing. All monies raised to go support the young ski and snowbard athletes as they train to go on to bigger and tougher goals.
