ASSINIBOIA — The Shurniak Art Gallery has reached its 20th anniversary in 2025 and is celebrating with a vacation raffle.
The late Mr. Shurniak’s nephew, Mark, along with his sister and mother, owns a condo at the Fernie Alpine Resort. They are donating the use of the accommodation to the lucky winner. The gallery thanks the Ealey family for their generous donation.
Included in the package is a five-night stay in a luxury suite that sleeps six. Stone Creek Chalets in Fernie, B.C., is the location of the condo. A $500 Visa gift card is part of the package to be used to experience what Fernie has to offer. Also in the deal is a $500 gas card for a total trip value of $2,000.
There are many things to experience in Fernie. For those who enjoy putting around, there is a golf course available. The angler can enjoy fly fishing. To the person who likes to live on the edge, white water rafting can be enjoyed. A tamer sport available is kayaking or a paddle boat. Along the same line is waterboarding or canoeing. If dry land is more your thing, hiking or biking trails can be explored. For the animal enthusiast, horseback riding is another adventure available. The person who really enjoys the creature comforts can enjoy a day at the spa, especially after trying out the other activities. It almost seems like Fernie has it all.
The getaway Fernie Alpine Resort package tickets have been available for a while and can be found at the gallery or by e-Transfer. Only 300 tickets have been made. The prize can be used at any time so it is convenient for anyone’s time frame. Shurniak Gallery’s Garden Party on June 29, where the anniversary party will be enjoyed, is the date of the draw.
