Winter Driving School FAQ

Will there be a Winter Driving School this 2019/2020 season?

As far as I know something was in the works, not sure the ice would be thick enough yet tho.

The Ghost Lake ice? Are they allowing events on it again?

No it was going to be the one by Strathmore from what I recall.

Thanks for the reply.  I suppose that's lesson #1: Don't drive on thin ice.

Just to clarify, the SASC won't be hosting any winter driving events this season. We are not aware of any changes in TransAlta's position of banning sporting clubs from hosting events on the lake. There are rumors that CSCC may be hosting an Ice Dice series this year on a different lake, but it doesn't appear that anything official has been announced.

I know of an alternate location just 10minutes East of Crossiron which has plenty of ice for holding a school.  Would just need to find out who the property owner is and try to negotiate something.
