Ski resorts are located all over the world, so if you are having trouble deciding which is the best place for you The Austrian Tirol is where you want to go. They have tons of brochures to browse through, and can provide friendly advice.
If you're not heading on any holidays this year, then you can still get the ski resort experience over at the French Pavillion, where you can ride a ski simulator, learn to shoot, and sample some french cuisine. If you don't fancy going continental, then head to the USA Pavilion to ride the rodeo bull, and sample drinks at the bar.
