150 British Families to Win Free Easter Holidays in St Moritz
150 British Families to Win Free Easter Holidays in St Moritz
Published : 20-Nov-2014 05:20
In an unprecedented move, St Moritz has announced that it is inviting 150 families of four to visit the resort for a free hotel stay over the Easter weekend -including half board, ski school lessons and lift passes for all.
The contest is in celebration of 150 years since the world's first winter sports holiday took place in the famous Swiss resort in the winter of 1864-65, when several Brits accepted a bet from a local hotelier that they would enjoy the winter stay there more than in London. The hotelier won his bet and the rest is skiing history!
The initiative is being organised by St. Moritz Hoteliers Association and the Swiss Ski School, both of which are also celebrating anniversaries, as well as the Engadin St. Moritz lift company.
The holiday prize is for three nights' half board accommodation from 3 to 6 April 2015 (Good Friday to Easter Monday)for the families, who each also receive ski passes valid for three days between 3 and 6 April 2015 for two adults and two children covering the Engadin St. Moritz snow sports region and group ski school lessons for two children for two days (Saturday, 4 April and Sunday, 5 April 2015) at the Swiss Ski School, St. Moritz. There will be a drinks reception to welcome all the families.
Families taking part should include two adults and two children aged up to 16, families with older children or more children can ask for a special rate for additional children. The prize does not include travel, hotels will be allocated closer to the date.
To enter familes should enter their details at http://www.engadin.stmoritz.ch/winter/en/familien-anmeldung-150jahre/ before the closing date for entries of Sunday, 18 January 2015
