All WFN Members and Staff are eligible to receive a Season Pass to Big White.
Passes can be picked up at Big White Ski Resort (5315 Big White Rd, Kelowna) or at the Big White Kelowna Office (1894 Ambrosi Rd, Kelowna). Photo ID will be required in order to verify member/staff identity. Anyone under the age of 19 will need a parent or legal guardian to be present to sign the release of liability waiver at the time of collection. A photo of the passholder will be taken at time of collection, and a new photo will need to be taken each time the pass is replaced. There will be a $20 card fee charged for any new passes printed, or if a member loses their pass and needs a replacement. Members & Staff who have a pass from the previous season can bring that pass to be reloaded, and will not need to pay the $20 fee. The card fee is in place to reduce plastic waste. This fee will not be covered by WFN.
Winter passes include skiing and snowboarding. Summer passes include mountain biking and hiking. Summer and winter passes are different products with different waivers, so Members and Staff will need to activate passes for both Summer and Winter seasons separately.
