Once again the world renowned Banff Mountain FIlm Festival will be making a stop in Kenora on Saturday Jan 7th at Saint Thomas Aquanis High School Gym on the BIG screen. The doors open at 6:30 and the movies begin at 7pm and end time wil be 9pm (or shortly there after). Tickets are only $18 in advance and $23 at the door and are available at Mount Evergreen Ski Club, Boardanyone and The Hardwear Co.
This year we have a good selection of movies about skiing, snowboarding, ice climbing, rock climbing, slacklining (which is like tightrope walking but much cooler!!), kayaking, and a really interesting “stop animation” film.
Some of the movies are very inspirational with hart warming stories of people overcoming adversity and others are just plain fun to watch. This year we have kept to the shorter movies with the longest movie being 20 minutes and most being 10 minutes or less. We will have 10 movies in total so there will be something for everyone.
The proceeds of the event go to support youth ski programs at local schools as well as at Mount Evergreen. Please get your tickets early to show your support and help us to continue to bring this event to Kenora. We can’t do it without the support of the community.
