Regular summer XC Work Parties have been held for nearly 30 years, in co-operation with NPWS. Summer work parties have facilitated constant upgrading of the trails and the Shelter and have involved hundreds of volunteers from the XC community over the years - many involved since the first snow fences were built in the 1990s. And they are on again in 2018. Once again we thank Canberra Alpine Club for providing the accomodation that makes it possible for workers to stay for the weekend in comfortable, congenial lodgings.

The February work party will involve work on the trails and projects in/around the Nordic Shelter. Please contact Peter Ward (nswxc1@gmail.com) if you can attend the February work party, or any of the future dates.  Contact Peter Cunningham if you require accomodation at CAC (Peter.Cunningham@evoenergy.com.au). As usual, bring food and drink, bed linen and towels, work clothing (hat, footwear for wet conditions on trails), fly protection.

One of the regular jobs is mowing the grass around the Shelter. It is a big job and the purchase of a ride-on mower is being considered. If you know of a good second-hand machine, please let us know.
