Since our last tour of the Rockies in 2019, many members have been asking, “when can we do it again”? Well here is the answer. The Red River Region will be returning to the Copper Point Resort in Invermere BC ( on the warm side of the Rockies ) in 2022. The exact dates are June 12 to 16, 2022.
The event will officially begin on Sunday June 12 at 3pm with check in and registration in the hotel lobby. This will be followed by a welcome reception in one of the private rooms, including food and cash bar, where you will get an overview and details of the program for the coming days.
On Monday we will head south of the resort for a scenic drive to the Kimberley area for our lunch stop. Following lunch you will have some choices on the route to take back to Copper Point.
Tuesday will be a free day where you can Golf at one of the many Courses nearby..including one right at Copper Point, enjoy a day at the Spa, go for a hike, dip in the Hot Springs at Radium, just up the road or anything else you wish.
We will probably visit The Bavarian Schnitzel House for dinner this evening which is right beside the resort.
Wednesday morning we will be back on the road heading north for our lunch stop at a scenic spot.
Again you will have some choice for your route back to the Resort.
Following everyone’s return we will hold a farewell dinner in a private room . Cocktails at 6pm and dinner at 7pm.
The registration for the event is $150 per Car which includes the Welcome reception and Farewell dinner.
The room rates at Copper Point are $194.65 for a standard room with balcony , $279.65 for 1 bedroom suite and $ 373.15 for 2 bedroom suites plus applicable taxes. These special rates apply from June 10 to 17 for our members. For those that want to extend the tour a group will leave Copper Point on the 16th and drive a scenic route to Kananaskis stopping along the way for lunch. This will provide another very unique view of the mountains.
The registration is open to Red River Members and will be limited to the first 20 cars registrations received with their cheque or money order for $150.
For those wishing to take the drive to Kananaskis I suggest you make your reservation now for June 16 as this resort fills up in advance.
