Firstly to all of you who paddled at Emerald Lakes on Sunday, great effort and we can see an indicator of the sort of teams we will be putting together in our ladies division, but the real reason for the email is to forward information regarding our Ladies Weekend at Thunderbird Park. I have attached the itinerary and Thunderbird Park site. I hope as many of you as possible make it, it will be physically challenging but socially rewarding, to be a Team we have to first become a team and I hope this short trip serves as a great bonding experience for us all, First rule of coaching is "make it fun, engage your participants". I know you will all engage in the challenge and we will all contribute to make it fun.
 

IF YOU DON'T WANT TO READ ALL THE INFORMATION IN THIS EMAIL SIMPLY:

Transfer $ 37.00 for the rope course or $ 86.00 for the rope course and accomodation into the Broadwater Dragons Bank Account.

• Closer to the date we can organise car pooling.

• We have been granted a 1200 checkout time on sunday, great for those wanting a sleep in or leisurely restaurant breakfast.

• Terri is composing a spreadsheet of those of you who have paid, once you transfer either of these amounts into the Broadwater Bank Account Terri will put your name against set amount, 18 ladies so far have expressed interest I am hoping for 25.

 
Thanks Georgie
