SilverStar hosts Australian Day.

It might not be the time of year to strip down and head outdoors, but if you’re an Australian in Canada on Jan. 26 it won’t matter how cold it is.

Those from down under will be celebrating the National Day of Australia this Thursday — the proclamation of British sovereignty over the eastern seaboard of Australia.

But if you’re in Canada at live near a ski hill you know the day will be filled with shenanigans and fun.

SilverStar Mountain will be joining in on the mischief and hosting the annual Bikini Ski Run. Those brave enough will put on their party pants, or no pants, and head out on the hill.
