First day of the 2016/17 season was the 8th of December
It’s on again. Each year we run a competition to pick the first day of the season. The rules are
- The first day the lifts open for skiers and boarders at any one of the resorts in Hakuba.
- One date per person. If 2 or more people choose the same date then we will have a draw out of a hat to choose the winner.
- The date must be chosen at least one week in advance
- If a date isn’t chosen then it’s the closest date before.
The prizes are
- A Hakuba White Horse Long sleeve T
- 5000 yen voucher at the White Horse Bar and Restaurant in Echoland.
So go to the bottom of this blog and put your date in the comments section or message me HERE and I will add it. Good luck. Remember that the resorts will open as soon as there is enough snow on the ground so it’s pretty much any time now. Just patiently waiting for THAT storm.
UPDATE – BYRON SHAPLAND was the winner with the 21st of November. Thanks for entering and I am I hope you enjoyed your prizes.
