An annual Thanksgiving favorite up in Whistler, the Turkey Sale and SWAP will be taking place again this weekend. The whole community gets into (including restaurants) but if you need some gear before the start of the winter season, it’s a good chance to grab some at discounted prices.
October 7-10, 2011
Whistler Blackcomb and the surrounding community are coming together once again to show our thanks to two of the things we are incredibly grateful for – snow and the mountain enthusiasts that dream all summer long about the day it starts to fall again.

Combine that with a wide assortment of clothing and accessories from several local Whistler retailers plus equipment, clothing and accessories from Whistler Blackcomb’s chain of retail outlets – and you have an unbelievable one-stop shopping opportunity for getting fully and economically outfitted for the winter season.
