About the Event
Scholarship is the envy of all the clubs on the mountain. It is what builds lifelong friendships at Rangatira.
Rangatira offers an annual scholarship to eight or so junior and youth members aged 12 to 14. Scholarship normally involves a week of ski instruction as a group in the school holidays plus another one or two weekends skiing as a supervised group.
The club pays for a ski instructor from Monday through Friday of Scholarship week and all scholars receive free accommodation on these nights.
There is a lot more to Scholarship than just skiing! Team bonding is a very big part of the program (with bike rides and other fun activities thrown in for good measure).
If you are interested, please contact Trish Oosterbaan - trishoosterbaan@gmail.com - to express your interest. Applications close 21st May. Successful applicants will be announced at the Pre-Season Function at Snow Planet on May 28.
Things you need to include - skiing ability, years you have belonged to Rangatira and why you would like to do scholarship this year.
