In just 2 weeks time Wengen will host the best skiers in the world, and that means we’ll also have the world’s press and 30,000 spectators. Lots to do therefore. The army and civil defence will do much of the work, and they began work on the ‘World Cup Village’ today. The first job is to cover the tennis courts and part of the ice rink with tough plastic tiles.

Once this is complete the bars, food outlets and hospitality facilities can be built. It’s going to be a busy couple of weeks.
