The Grande Prairie Ski Club (o/a: Nitehawk) has been providing recreation opportunities in the Peace Region for the past 60 years. In that time, Nitehawk Year-Round Adventure Park has grown to offer engaging outdoor activities during all four seasons. On May 19th 2020, we suffered a catastrophic natural disaster with a large landslide which has affected our chairlift as well as some of our ski runs, located in the Wapiti River Valley. This landslide will go down as one of the largest challenges our Non-profit recreation facility has ever faced. 

Nitehawk has always been a local escape. A place to feel the wind in your hair or enjoy the calming effects of nature, and to learn & build new skills while connecting with friends & family. We know the importance of outdoor recreation for our physical and mental well being. The love and support we have felt from the community over the past 60 years is always appreciated and reciprocated through Nitehawk’s support of other not-for-profit and charity fundraisers whenever possible. 

We are committed to continuing to be a hub for outdoor activity & recreation in the Peace Country. Through the establishment of our “Landslide Recovery Fund”, we will be ready for the future of Nitehawk. There is a team of experts from our community and across Alberta working to develop the best long term solutions for Nitehawk, and we are incredibly grateful for the outpouring of support we have already received. The offers of support and gift in kind contributions that have flooded our inboxes have been heartfelt and a huge help. 

With the help of the Communities we serve we are currently working on an interim solution with the installation of a New T-Bar Lift on the Westside of Showoff Run. This lift will allow us to gain access to more Terrain by February 2022 and will provide more opportunities going forward. The end goal is to get the Chairlift back and this T-Bar will allow us to continue to operate.

Here are some other great ways you can help:

 ● Share our fundraising efforts on social media
 ● Tell your friends and family
 ● Volunteer to help if we are in need
 ● Purchase tickets for our fundraisers
 ● Be a fan of Nitehawk 

Any way you help will always make a difference and together we will blaze a bright future for Nitehawk!
