HI EVERYONE

From recent snow reports concerning Lake Mountain, it seems that snow hasn’t really amassed as much as we hoped over there. SO instead of cancelling the event, MASS has decided to change the venue to the wonderful MOUNT BAW BAW. It is still a ONE DAY event!!!

MOUNT BAW BAW is a unique ski resort located in Victoria and approximately 120km from Melbourne. It is the one of the most popular ski resort in Australia in visitor numbers due to its proximity to the populous city of Melbourne, mainly from casual visitors. Unlike at Lake Mountain, the venue offers a wider array of activities ranging from SNOWBOARDING,SKIING, SNOWBALL fights, building SNOWMANS, TOBOGGANING and so many more SNOWY activities!!! So just come and enjoy a lovely day with MASS while winter still lasts!!!

OH, and I forgot to mention that the scenery is one that will be memorable at your visit to MOUNT BAW BAW.

PRICE
member $52
non member $55
PRICE INCLUSIVE OF GATE ENTRY AND TRANSPORTATION
PAYMENT
If you have ALREADY PAID for the Lake Mountain event, please return to the MASS booth and make the additional payment.

ALL PAYMENTS MUST BE MADE BY THURSDAY!!

RENDEZVOUS PLACE

MEET at 6:30am SHARP at the BBQ pit on the lawn. It takes approx 2.5 hours to reach Mount Baw Baw so BE ON TIME!!
~NO MALAYSIAN TIME~

THINGS TO BRING
BRING WARM CLOTHES so you don’t have to rent there.
E.g. thick water-proof jacket, goggles, gloves, beanie etc.
