Fifty Otoko Marae children and their guardians tried skiing for the first time ever recently when they visited the Waimarino. The group, all from Wanganui, stayed at the Raetihi Marae on their trip which they described as part holiday and part education. As well as visiting Whakapapa they went to the Waiouru Army Museum and held a concert for their hosts. Money for the trip came from a $1000 COGS grant plus a flea market and busking by the youngsters. What did they think of skiing? "Loved it!" they said.
