Video: Rob & Ezra hauling up the 4wd track on their scooters

For initiation weekend Rob and Ezra decided to ride their 50cc scooters to Temple Basin and back, which took them 4 hours each way and required extra petrol cans tied on between their legs. You boys are insane but we love ya. Anyway here’s a video of them trying to get their scooters up the 4wd track:

FOO SAN DINNER

So initiation weekend was epic. The canteen now officially has working eftpos, Rob and Ezra made it to Temple and back on their scooters, there were multiple beer olympics times under 1 min and pants were declared optional.

Next up on our calendar is the Annual Foo San dinner. If a mean feed of Chinese accompanied with some yarns about skiing, boarding, or the club in general sounds like your idea of a good night, flick us an email (we need to confirm numbers soon).

This is a BYO event (unfortunately we were told we weren’t allowed to take a keg like last year… something about vomiting on tables in front of other guests…?) and the onslaught will continue at the Foundry after the food is gone.

When: Thursday 8 March at 5.30

Where: Foo San (just along from R&R/next to Captain Bens)

Cost: $15

Make sure you RSVP to the club email and see you then!

Initiation Weekend

Initiation weekend is THIS WEEKEND!

Come join us up Temple Basin for the first workparty of the year. It’s a perfect opportunity to meet other skiers and snowboarders, spin yarns to those of us who have been around for a few years and generally have a mint party on the hill.

Attending work parties is a great way to earn work tickets which can be exchanged for lift passes/accommodation during the ski season.

Contact the club if you want to come along, need more information or have mates who want to sign up.
