A great way to keep costs down ×
Skiing in Australia is expensive. Cross country skiing is no exception, although of course, it is not as expensive as alpine skiing. Our club has decades of experience of finding and booking relatively inexpensive skiing accommodation.
Our ride sharing system helps to keep transport costs in check and our collective knowledge about ski gear can help you keep the cost of gear in check. We also have an online gear exchange where you can buy and sell gear within the club.
Meetings
Meet Skiers, Chat, Enjoy
Club meetings are held monthly from May to October, from 8:00 to 10.00 pm. Meetings usually include a speaker on a skiing - related topic. Topics include Ski equipment, Fitness, Weather and Climate, Member's overseas trips, etc. Members gather to hear guest speakers, video presentations, reports of ski activities and to book accommodation and ski trips. Meetings are informal, social and friendly occasions. New members are most welcome.
- Some members meet for dinner at a local eatery or hotel before the meetings.
- At the end of the season, there is an Awards night and Club Dinner.
- Members are also welcome to attend the monthly committee meetings.
If you're thinking about joining the Club, drop into a meeting and have a chat with some members.
