15 tonnes of snow from Perisher was delivered last Friday morning to Canberra Zoo & Aquarium. In addition to a snowy home for the animals, the Zoo also created a kids snow playground for snowmen and the occasional snowball fight. Perisher and the Zoo together are raising money for the International Snow Leopard Fund (http://www.snowleopard.org/). Perisher and Deanes have also joined forces to raise money for the Snow Leopards. Canberrans heading to Perisher can book a Deanes Snow Trip with a portion of the proceeds being donated directly to the fund Deanes Snow Trips start from just $135 for a day in the snow that includes transport, a beginner lesson and a day lift ticket. An overnight package is also available from $252 which also includes accommodation. For more information on Deanes Snow Trips phone Deanes on 02 6299 3722. |

| SIDS and Kids Red Nose day at Perisher – 25 June | |
| We love to get behind a good cause and what better way to help research into SIDS to save babies and young children than to support Red Nose Day, with Go Red Instead Day at Perisher on 25 June. All guests and staff are encouraged to wear something red to work that day, and to decorate work areas, so if you see a lot of red around that day don’t be surprised! Perisher will start the ball rolling with a donation of $1500, and if you’d like to help there will be Red Nose merchandise available for purchase from Human Resources, as well at other outlets around the resort.

| Winter Solstice– 21 June | |
| On the day of Winter Solstice, Earth’s south pole is tilted furthest away from the Sun. Monday 21 June was the shortest day of the year, from now on the days will get longer. Astronomically, the winter solstice, being the day of the year which has fewest hours of daylight, ought to be the middle of the winter season, but a temperature lag means that the coldest period normally follows the solstice, so coldest months of winter are ahead of us, which is great news for skiers and boarders.
