These ten young Japanese skiers, together with their coach (second from right), were in Ohakune last week as part of the annual student exchange scheme between the Turoa Alpine and Ski Club Incorporated (TASCI) and Shiga-Kogen High School in Japan. Whilst this is the first visit by these particular students it is the fifth exchange between the two groups - nine boys and girls from TASCI visited Shiga-Kogen in January for two weeks of ski training. Because both groups are accommodated with their host families, the exchange scheme has a cross-culture benefit also. Sponsors for the scheme in New Zealand are Turoa Skifields Ltd.
