Progress on new Ski Clubs hut

All the blocks of the main shell of the VUC-AUC Ski Hut on Mr. Ruapehu have been laid, according to the annual report of the VUC Ski Club presented by club chairman Bernic O'Shea at the AGM on April 26.

Next big job is to erect the roof, lay the floor and put in window frames.

The hut is being financed to the extent of £600 by each of the two colleges concerned, but more funds will be required to complete the hut. All being well, the hut should be habitable by this winter.

All those interested in helping to get the hut finished before the skiing season should see Mr. O'Shea about joining working parties, and watch the club noticeboard for dates of working parties.

Chairman for the present year is Jim Larsen and Secretary is Audrey Todd. Ted Petrie is Treasurer and Steven Gentry Club captain.
