Welsh Skiing Gets the Cheese
The makers of Cadog cheese, the legendary Welsh Cheddar, have teamed up with Snowsport Cymru Wales to be the title sponsor of both the Welsh Artificial Slope Championships and the European Artificial Slope Championships for 2007. In a partnership that will last until 2009 Cadog will also sponsor the Welsh Artificial Slope Championships and the British Artificial Slope Championships during 2008 and 2009.
The international skiing events will be held at Pontypool Ski Centre in South Wales in September and are expected to attract over 150 competitors from across Great Britain and Europe. Both weekends of ski racing incorporate two days of slalom skiing and promise some of the most exciting skiing competitions held on artificial ski slopes this year.
The big cheese at Snowsport Cymru Wales, Robin Kellen, said “ We are delighted to have the support of Cadog Welsh Cheddar backing our artificial slope championships. A Welsh cheese made from Welsh cows on Welsh farms, supporting the development of Welsh skiing on Welsh slopes is an excellent combination, also their cheese tastes excellent too”
David Potts, Dairy Farmers of Britain’s Commercial Director, said, “This is a great opportunity to promote the Cadog brand along with the another great Welsh offering.”
Through this unique association Cadog will be promoting their cheese through free taster sessions at ski slopes across Wales. At the same time people will be given a taste of snowsports and shown the opportunities to take part on artificial slopes in Wales.
