Girls Day – Saturday 30th September – Cardrona

We had to cancel our last girls day due to the weather – we had over 50 girls between ski and snowboard signed up – amazing outcome!!

Luckily we managed to secure the female trainers for one more day, as we wanted to give this our best shot of making this day happen! If interested, please book through your profile: NZSIA profile – availability is limited.

The only thing we ask, because this course is free, it is easy to be a little chilled about attending or not. Please still operate in accordance with our NZSIA Conditions of Registration – once inside the last 10 days, please only pull off due to a medical event.
