Blog #31 | Fun Things Around Town to do During the Winter Break

If you are currently at home reading this blog then you probably either:
  1. Do not celebrate Christmas or,
  2. Are trying to avoid the waves of relatives pestering you about what you are doing at UBC and (dun dun dun!) the future.
To get you into the spirit of Christmas, because it’s the holiday season, I’ve compiled a list of festive activities that you can do in Vancouver (sorry non-Vancouver people!). (note: Images link to relevant pages on the internet)

Van Dusen Festival of Lights

Many of the mountains are still offering early season rates so now is an awesome time to get some skiing/boarding in at a discount rate.

Free Skating at Robson Square

Happy holidays and enjoy the rest of the winter break!   Charles To – Social Coordinator
