C. S. I. R.
O. Ski Club was founded in the early 1950s by a group of intrepid C. S. I.
R. O. workers and their families. The Club was founded to provide members with facilities including accommodation, in good skiing and recreational locations at reasonable cost.
Over the years the club has grown dramatically and now has two ski lodges. One in Perisher Valley built in 1985, the other in East Jindabyne acquired in 1989. Accommodation and facilities are provided for the use of residents, but no staff of any kind is employed. The club provides accommodation for members and their guests both during the Winter Skiing Season and at other times in the year when a visit to the High Country can be a rewarding experience.
The Club is a company limited by guarantee. As such no member may take a profit from the company. Membership is currently closed.
