Optimist Hill

Optimist Hill Drive Less Ride More. Saskatoon’s Winter Destination! ���� While this is a project being led by Optimist Club of Saskatoon, it is a true community project.

The Optimist Hill Campaign - this is your opportunity to support the building and establishment of a Recreation Park (Winter and Summer Use) and a Learning & Activity Centre at Diefenbaker Park in Saskatoon. Optimist Clubs have as their mission: to bring out the best in kids. This project will provide a dynamic opportunity to do just that. We can all remember our parents telling us: "Go Play Outsi

de", well it turns out they were right on track. The Recreation Park and Learning & Activity Centre once complete will provide an amazing venue for families and kids to come together, this is the perfect venue for families to Go Play Outside together. The campaign goal is to raise $5.5 million and we are well on our way. What is needed now is for you to join us in this campaign. Make your own contribution but also create a page for yourself and invite your relatives and friends to join you in supporting the Optimist Hill Campaign, so more kids and families can Go Play Outside.

🎉 START PLANNING THE PARTY NOW. WINTER WILL BE HERE BEFORE YOU KNOW IT. ❄️

Christmas party?
School outing?
Staff party?
Family get-together?
Baby shower?
Birthday?
Or something we haven’t even thought of yet?

Bring it to Optimist Hill. 👀

We’re now pre-booking groups and events for the upcoming winter season — because nobody wants to be the person in December saying, “Uh… where are we having the Christmas party?” 😂

Whether your group wants to hit the slopes, go tubing, hang out at the chalet, or build a day around the hill, let’s start planning.

And while you’re making those plans…

🎟️ Our 2026/27 Pre-Season Season Pass Sale is ON!

PLUS, every season pass purchased during September gets you an entry into our draw for an additional 5-Pack Punch Card — 5 visits to use for skiing, snowboarding OR tubing.

So yes… we're already talking about winter.

You should probably start too. 😉

👉 Visit optimisthill.ca and click SHOP for season passes.
