Melbourne (VIC), Australia - The Snow Australia Club, operated by the Australian Ski Areas Association (ASSA), is launching a program to learn to ski or snowboard across Australia for only AU $1.
Mt. Hotham
The one day package includes the use of beginner lifts and a beginner lesson for skiing or snowboarding and will be redeemable at Thredbo, Perisher, Charlotte Pass, Selwyn Snowfields, Mount Buller, Hotham, Falls Creek and Mount Baw Baw. Lake Mountain will also participate in the one dollar promotion offering something special for people who do not wish to ski or snowboard, including resort entry (value AU$40 per vehicle) and a cross-country ski lesson package including a 90 minute lesson, all day ski rental and a trail pass.
The program requires registration at www.snow-australia.com between August 21 and August 27. You then have from September 12 to 18 to redeem your voucher at the resort of your choice.
ASSA officials acknowledge that the program is designed to combat growing competition resulting from a flood of marketing from New Zealand’s ski resorts in Australia.
