First aid course

Sunday, March 6th, 2011

Daniel Keech [dkeech1@hotmail.com] has organised to have a first aid instructor give interested members first aid training. Cost is $150 and needs a minimum of 4 people to sign up, although the more the merrier. It will be a one day course, with a work book to be completed before hand. This course will also include specific tasks to our sport, such as safe helmet removal, etc. Very worthwhile. The date will be whatever suits everyone.

Getting out more…

Sunday, March 6th, 2011

At our last club meeting, we decided we all need to get out more!

So, there will be several flying trips in the next little while. First one is to Cooktown. For those who came last time, they will know how much potential this site has. If you didn’t come last time, shame on you!

The dates are Sat 21st and Sun 22nd of May. Subject to the usual weather restraints, of course.

Next up, Eungella on the June long weekend. 11th, 12th and 13th June. This will also be used to carry out some much needed repair work onĀ our ramp, as it has been a bit neglected lately.

And last but not least, The Rock in Townsville. Sat 9th and Sun 10th July.

If you would like to come along to any or all of the above events, contact Bob or Brett and let them know.
