Proposed ‘Summer Associate’ Trial – Have Your Say

You are currently viewing Proposed ‘Summer Associate’ Trial – Have Your Say

The Committee is considering a new membership category aimed at increasing lodge usage during the quieter summer off-peak period. We’re seeking your feedback on a limited trial of the ‘Summer Associate’ program.

What is a Summer Associate?
Summer Associates would:
Stay at Jindabyne or Perisher during off-peak periods (excluding Christmas and Easter)
Book at standard off-peak member rates
Receive club communications (Frozen Acres, Skimail, Facebook)
Attend social events
Pay an annual lodge fee
No voting rights or committee eligibility

Eligibility
To qualify, individuals must:
Attend at least one work party
Be sponsored by a CAC member
Pay the annual fee

Trial Details
50 places available over the first 2 years
Annual review to assess impact on member access
CAC members will not be eligible to join during the trial period

Have Your Say
We invite all members to share their thoughts — both on the concept and the temporary exclusion of members from the program.

Send your feedback to the Secretary by 31 August 2025.
