About the Host Site
HOST
Shalom Park was built in the winter of 1985. It is now in its 37th year of operation and the longest serving ski site in Canada. Shalom Park has hosted several Pro Water Skiing events, the Jr World Championships in 1996 and the U 21 Worlds in 2019. An astonishing result at the U 21 Worlds was that 5 World Records were broken. It was an exciting time for everyone. Shalom Park has used an app called Mindbody for five years to register skiers for sets. This has made it easy for anyone to book a set without being a member of a club and without waiting for a long line of skiers that got to our site first. Shalom Park is recognized as one of the best ski sites in the World and we are always welcoming to new skiers.
