We’re delighted to announce that we are in the final stages of planning for our tour this year for the junior section. Full details are below, so please register your interest immediately with either JP Ward or Mike Power:
What:
The tour is planned to go to Thirsk RFC in North Yorkshire. We will be staying in the excellent Carlton Lodge Outdoor Centre nearby (http://www.carltonlodge.org.uk/) for each of the Friday and Sat nights. The structure of the weekend is planned in outline as follows:
Fri 10 May – afternoon – leave clubhouse in bus to Thirsk
– Arrive around 8pm
– Dinner once we arrive
– Bed by 10pm!
Sat 11 May – all day – a range of team building and challenging activities during this day at the centre, focussing on team building, creative thinking and communication, including
– Outdoor assault course & zipwires
– abseiling
– archery
– canoeing
Sun 12 May – morning – in bus to Thirsk RFC
– Matches start at 11am
– BBQ festival lunch
– Leave at 3pm
– Arrive home around 7pm
Who:
This tour has a maximum of 38 places in total available due to accommodation restrictions at the centre. We are planning on taking at least 6 adults on this trip, so are allowing 32 junior spaces. As a result, we are limiting this tour to P6, P7, S1 and S2 age groups only at this stage
How much?:
The accommodation costs are hopefully being kept to £99 for the two nights, including food plus the full day of activities. The only additional cost will be the bus for the two days, so we are hoping to keep the cost to under £150 in total.
Please reserve your place with a £50 deposit, payable by all the usual means (and we can now even take credit cards!)
