The ski and snowboard hill at WinSport is already open, and now the Tube Park will open too.

WinSport says the Servus Tube Park opens for the season on Saturday.

"With nine thrilling lanes to choose from and a convenient magic carpet to whisk you back to the top, it’s all about maximum fun with minimal effort," said WinSport in a Wednesday news release.

The hill is open Saturdays and Sundays in two-hour windows available at 10 a.m., 12:30 p.m. and 3 p.m., though cold weather and wind might impact operations.

On Fridays the hill is open for two different two-hour windows: 4 p.m. and 6:30 p.m.

WinSport says daily operations will follow weekend hours from Dec. 21 to Jan. 5, except for Christmas Day when the park is closed.

Tickets are $25 per person, except for Fridays when they're $16.

The Tube Park is open to everyone age four and up, though children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.
