Another significant change was the establishment of the School SnowSports Development Foundation as a separate but closely linked entity of Skiing Australia, to manage the Victorian Interschools competition and other School SnowSports development programs.

  • Order of Australia (OAM) Awarded to Myrtleford Ski Club Members on Behalf of All Members, the Myrtleford Ski Club Committee Is E
    Order of Australia (OAM) awarded to Myrtleford Ski Club members On behalf of all members, the Myrtleford Ski Club Committee is extremely pleased to congratulate Val McPherson, George McPherson and Malcolm Milne who are three long term members (Malcolm is a Life Member) of the club, on being named in the Australia Day honours list as Order of Australia medal winners. Val and George were nominated for the many years of community work that they have undertaken. One thing that was omitted was the time and effort they both put into our ski club in the early ‘foundation’ years. Malcolm was nominated for his skiing success and also the effect this has had on the Australian Ski industry. A more detailed account of their club work and connections to the ski club and their OAM citations can be found below. Read about George & Val Malcolm George and Val McPherson George and Val were part of the group that was instrumental in reforming the club in 1947 after it went into recess during World War 2. They remained active members of the club for many years and Val served on the committee for 5 years from 1957 to 1961. During this time she served as secretary for three years and also took on the role of club booking officer. George, along with several other ‘founding’ members, worked as part of the ‘crew’ that actually constructed the lodge in 1948/49. There are several photographs hanging on the lodge walls that were taken at that time showing the work that George and the others undertook during this construction.
