Sundance Balloons
http://www.sundanceballoons.com/

Today’s Groupon to Sundance Balloons. Choose from the following options:

• For $138, you get a hot air balloon ride on a weekday morning (a $275 value).
• For $162, you get a hot air balloon ride on a weekday evening (a $325 value).
• For $185, you get a hot air balloon ride anytime (a $375 value).

Sundance Balloons’ vibrant inflatables float adventurous passengers over scenic landscapes at sunrise and sunset. Each one-hour journey commences as sojourners greet their flight crew at a pre-determined location, receive a briefing on what to expect during the excursion, and observe their balloon as it swells to more than 10 storeys in height. Morning flight teams convene 30 minutes before sunrise, and evening passages begin 2.5 hours before sundown to capture enough twilight for wildlife and Where’s Waldo sightings. The woven gondolas glide 1,000 feet above the ground but can sometimes gently skim treetops or cornfields when wandering over the countryside. Since balloons drift with prevailing winds, there is no wind chill and travellers feel only a slight sensation of movement. As is tradition for ballooning, explorers of the appropriate age end their flight with a champagne toast to tranquility, beauty, and neighbourhoods that appear as giant smiley faces only visible from the air. In the event of poor flying conditions, Sundance Balloons reschedules rides for a future fair-weather morning or evening.

Sundance Balloons’ flying season spans May–October. Buyers may add flying partners by purchasing additional Groupons, and should allot four total hours for check-in, travel to launch location, safety briefing, setup and packing, and return to meeting location. Upon registration, fliers receive an informational packet and the flight’s meeting location.

Adrenaline Adventures
http://adrenalinemb.com/
600 Caron Rd. Headingley, Manitoba

Today’s Groupon to Adrenaline Adventures in Headingley. Choose from the following options:

• For $10, you get two xorb rides (a $20 value). Today’s deal is valid for two rides for one person or one ride for two people.
• For $15, you get two passes for one evening of unlimited weeknight snow tubing (a $30 value). Evening passes are valid Monday–Thursday between 5 p.m. and 9 p.m.
• For $29, you get a 48-ride family snow-tubing pass valid for four to six family members (a $60 value).

A premier venue for snowy recreation, Adrenaline Adventures keeps wintertime enthusiasts of all ages engaged in high-octane outdoor activities atop their newly revamped hill. Thrill-seekers can roll with gravity’s unrelenting punches by strapping into the transparent xorb’s inner ball for a topsy-turvy spin down the hill. The pellucid sphere comes equipped with two entrances to accommodate a pair of orbiting passengers, and rides last approximately one minute or eight hamster years. Alternatively, weeknight tubing grants guests unlimited eventide glides down the hill atop inflatable donuts. Those opting for a family snow-tubing pass can assemble four to six kinfolk for 48 flake-skimming journeys. A tow-lift ferries tubers up the elevated topography, allowing sliders to preserve precious energy for eating their way through the rubber donuts when they are finished.

In defiance of nature and local meteorologists, a heavy-duty snow machine ensures that slopes remain cloaked in powder regardless of temperature. Teeth chattering from chilly air can retire to the balmy clubhouse to warm up or avoid small talk with snowmen acquaintances; esurient tummies can mosey into The Water’s Edge Restaurant for gustatory refueling (not included in today’s deal).

Fine Art Bartending School
http://www.fineartbartending.com/
10-222 Osborne St. Winnipeg, Manitoba
(204) 783-3322

Today’s Groupon to Fine Art Bartending School. Choose between the following options:

• For $65, you get an Introduction to Bartending class (a $165.99 value).
• For $299, you get a two-week bartending certification course, plus a live training bartending shift (up to a $724 value).

Fine Art Bartending School offers hands-on training to barkeep aspirants and home hobbyists alike in a fun and interactive environment. During the four-hour introductory class, an experienced pro imbues students with the bartending basics and sympathetic-listening techniques necessary for manning the boozy gates. Classes cover proper mixing, pouring, and braising methods, imparting the know-how for crafting concoctions of classic cocktails, martinis, and shots. The instructor also goes over all the essential elements to stocking and maintaining a home bar so students are prepared when a potential mate or the Stampeders stop by for a drink. Classes are usually scheduled on Saturday afternoons from noon to 4 p.m., with upcoming class dates listed on the website.

For those whose future vision includes drink slinging for tips or tipsy grins, Fine Art’s two-week certification course adds further skills to mixological indoctrination. Students can hone the liquid choreography skills of draft-beer pouring and participate in an optional guest-bartending shift for an additional fee (not included with this Groupon). After graduation, swizzle-pivoting pupils test their prowess and current-events-trivia retention with a live shift, then tap into the school’s database of bartending jobs across Canada. Tuition for both classes includes all taxes and course materials, which leaves extra resources for continuing their classes in bar-top acrobatics.
