HEMEL HEMPSTEAD, ENGLAND, September 22, 2010 (Press-News.org) Thursday 30th September and Friday 1st October, The Snow Centre in Hemel Hempstead welcomes all to an authentic Austrian Apres Ski party with live Tyrolian music, real ski instructors from the Otztal Region and traditional Austrian food and drink.
Both Apres Ski parties are organized by Otztal. This region in the Austrian Alps is one of the main sponsors of the Snow Centre. The team from the Otztal Tourist Board has chosen the indoor slopes in Hemel Hempstead to organize two training days on real snow for members of the travel industry on the last Thursday of September and the first Friday of October. This is an invite-only event but the Austrians are known for their cordiality after a session on the snow, so the Apres Ski parties on both days are open to all.
From 5.30pm onwards, visitors can enjoy a great panoramic views over the slopes, live music and Austrian specialties at THE EDGE, only 20 minutes outside London. A team of Austrian ski instructors will be showing off their spectacular skills on the snow. After the demonstration, the instructors will head to the bar to answer questions and have a good time.
Join them on either day for a true Austrian Mountain experience by calling our sales team on 0845 258 9000.
