       get some changing weather and
       last weekend Falls creek shivered
through a couple of those cold snowy
days that remind us winter is not far away.
Temperatures plummeted to -2.7°C early
Sunday morning with a wind chill factor
of -12° made standing out on the course
as a marshal a sign of the dedication that
volunteers put in for our local events.
On the Saturday around 5cm of snow was
observed settling on the upper slopes –
“something that is not uncommon – yet
