Lecht 2090 - Snowmaking Crowdfunder

Boarderline Store looking for staff this season!

Not long to go til those new cannons are firing..!! ❄❄❄

Reposting about the job opportunity as no sooner than we put this out last time - most of the local area lost power and internet for the week.. so you may have missed it..!! 💨💨

We are looking for great retail staff to help run the store.

Full or part time hours can be considered – so if you have some availability on just certain days - please get in touch to discuss, as it may work.

Requirements:
You must be friendly, organised, self-motivated and able to work under pressure, at times.

Snowsports experience is an advantage, but not essential

You must have your own transport, and ideally live reasonably locally.
Tomintoul – Strathdon – Ballater areas all ideal.

Due to the weather dependent nature of a ski centre, you must be flexible, and there are no guaranteed hours.

But with great snowmaking facilities at L**ht, there should be some continuity ❄❄❄

So – if you are interested, please dm us or [email protected] and let’s talk!

This is a big shout out to one of our resident clubs – Grampian Snowsports Club

They came up with a really fun way of raising funds for their club and our crowdfunding campaign – great to see loads of families getting out and notching up the miles with physical activity for the **htToL**h challenge!

Thank you so much for the fantastic donation! 😃

G*Snow is a young and progressive snowsports club, whose ethos is ‘all of mountain’ so they feature racing, freestyle and freeskiing in equal measure – delivered by some great local coaches.
And… they are adding a snowboard program for this season, so give them a follow to keep up to date!

Update!
Since the exciting announcement of the snow cannons arrival earlier this week, we’ve seen a great flurry of donations and have blasted well past the £60,000 mark which is just brilliant! 😀

If you weren’t aware – there are some pretty amazing prizes up for grabs in our final prize draw – namely:

3 pairs of L**ht season passes

A week in a luxury chalet in Morzine with Hunter Chalets & Apartments

A weekend in a beach side holiday home at Findhorn

A bottle of Glenfiddich Winter Storm (sorry Ian Smith, we tried..!)😜

A bottle of Glenfiddich IPA Experiment

If you have contributed £50 or more, you are automatically entered.
If you haven’t, you know what to do before Saturday...!!

A final push towards our target - thanks everybody! 😀

❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄

We were absolutely delighted to receive a cheque today from Heather Cowie, the chair of Gordon Skiers Racing presented to our MD - Pieter!

The Gordon Skiers are an Aberdeenshire ski racing club who have training at The L**ht since they formed back in the 1980's and have nurtured some great talents, several of whom have gone on to compete on the world stage.

What's more - Heather and her family have donated a 2 night stay in their beautifully renovated beach chalet at Findhorn Bay. This will be another amazing prize in the this weekend's final prize draw!

As long as you've donated a minimum of £50 you're in.
If you haven't - here's the link again 😉
