The Covid-19 outbreak meant the ski field had frozen the sale of their season passes, in case the not for profit club were unable to provide a refund, should the ski field not open.
Rainbow Ski Area general manager James Lazor said the goal was for the field to open on July 3.
"That all depends on the government and their decision on the alert level, but in June we would need to start making a decision on staff," Lazor said.
● Wash your hands.
● Use cough and sneeze etiquette.

Pet Direct are the new kids on the pet block and know the industry inside-out; they have over 350 dog years of animal experience within their team. Most importantly right now, they're still delivering all your essential items during the Covid-19 lockdown.
The Pet Direct team do things differently; firstly they ALL have pets of their own. They also personally hand-pick every product they stock; they have over 5,000 items that have been tried and tested (but mostly eaten). They ship daily, from their Auckland-based warehouse, straight to your doorstep (with free delivery over $29), and offer a best price guarantee.
Neighbours - our pets remain a constant source of love and comfort during unsettling times. So show them (and the team at Pet Direct) how special they are. To say thanks for the support (and for being a good neighbour during this tough time), they're offering you 10% off their already awesome prices. Just use the code NEIGHBOURLY10 at checkout.
