Learn To Be A Great Dragon Boat Team Member
This has been a pretty incredible year and I appreciate the wonderful new friends I have made this year. Much of the newness and excitement of the year has focused around Women Playing For TIME, Dragon Boating and Orlando Rowing Club.
Last week when the WOW team swelled the energy at ORC and climbed into the dragon boat I felt like I had birthed another baby. Quite an exciting time.
Now I hope we can get 12 folks together from our contacts to attend the Dragon Boat Clinic in Melbourne. I have been coached that it is a little primitive - I told them I was not a Princess and did not need a Ritz Carlton experience for that week. The dates are April 12th to 17th (six days) - Pines Resort, Melbourne Florida.
A few of the reasons to get a group to go together is there is discount based on 12 people or more. Before December 15th, it is $15 plus the early bird for a total of $40 off - I know we missed that deadline - and afterwards it is $25. The caveat is that GWN must receive one cheque from the group. The process for registering as a group is simple, we just call Carolyn or Susana and ask for promo codes. They will provide a unique code for each participant to go to the website and register and select paying by cheque. I am happy to be the banker on this one.
One great benefit of the camp is that if we want we can all paddle in the same boat. Boat composition is built based on skill and requests. During the registration we select our skill level and can add comments/requests. Jim, a highly recommended coach who loves beginners, will look at the requests and put all of the people from our group in one boat. It is a great way to elevate our teams skill level very quickly.
I hope ORC, WOW and WPFT will send this note to their dragon boaters.
Thanks for all the support, fun, interest and help. If you're interested in attending, please contact Lynda Canatay at 321.841.2272.
Happy New Year.
