Robert Twin: COMPANY Secretary
Skiing only became a part of my life in 1977 when, having commenced a career in Surveying in Tasmania, I moved to Launceston and near Ben Lomond, the State’s premier ski area. This led to me joining a new Ski Club which had been allocated a land lease on which we built the Toorbunna Ski Lodge. Coincidentally the timing matches the birth of TFSL. It was also through this club that I met my wife Jane and commenced a lifetime of skiing and secretarial responsibilities.
Jane and I moved to Canberra in 2002 and experienced the significantly improved snow fields of Thredbo and Perisher. Our initial search for a new ski club experience led us to Hi Noon Ski Club in Thredbo Village. With a desire to share our time across both ski areas, and to experience more of the range through ski-touring, we joined TFSL in 2018. The lodge operation mirrored our experience in Tassie and we are pleased to be a part of such a welcoming community and well equipped lodge. I joined the Board in the capacity of Company Secretary in 2020 and retain this responsibility as I now join the Board as a Director in 2022.
