4. Meltdown Pond Skim @ Snow Valley
Wrap up the ski/snowboard season with a splash! Sunday March 31st Snow Valley is hosting their March Meltdown Pond Skim. Participants will be challenged to complete their typical slope run with a stylish "skim" across an 80 ft pond at the bottom of the hill. Wacky costumes highly encouraged!
Registration will take place from 9 am-12 pm at the information desk and the pond skim will kick-off at 1 pm.
5. Sky Crystals Exhibit @ Simcoe County Museum
Don Komarechka's Sky Crystals Exhibit is at Simcoe County Museum until April 21st. Using a steady hand, an old mitten, and freshly falling snow Komarechka photographs snowflakes like you've never seen before. Many people have a hard time believing these photos are real... but you'll have to come see for yourself.
6. Caesar Sunday @ 1858 Caesar Bar
This is a must add to your weekend plans. It requires a little bit of a road trip but it is worth it! Head to Collingwood for the day and hit up 1858 Caesar Bar.
