come to Race Weekend: August 5-7

It's not too late to book in for Race Weekend - there are still a few rooms available for this special club weekend.

Race Weekend is not just for experienced racers, it's a fun weekend for all members.

The race is designed to be fun for kids and intermediates as well as the experts. You can ski or board, and maybe we might even see some telemark skis this year. Racing happens first thing on Saturday morning, with course inspection followed by 2 runs each. The rest of the weekend is available for free skiing. Dinner is provided on Saturday night and it's a great social time with everyone seated at one long table. There are awards for children under 13 and for grownups and a few fun awards.

It's a great opportunity to get to know other members better, challenge yourself in a friendly race and enjoy a great night in the lodge. If you haven't tried it, give it a go this year.

Better and better

After a few cold snowy days, the sun came out for a spectacular day at Falls Creek.  International and Summit are running and the snow is dry.

fantastic conditions

The last 2 days have been blue sky and cold dry snow with great skiing on the groomers and off-piste. Summit opened part-way through the day. It looked like they were working on getting  International going too.

Great conditions for this stage of the season!

Excellent news, these lifts are all open as of Wednesday afternoon.. Fingers crossed for Summit before too long.

There are still a few beds available for the weekend.
