June 20-27th Teuge round chute course and venlo event

Post by Hans Gowert »

I am attending the Teuge round chute course in holland on the 20th to the 25th June this month with the pathfindergroup

http://www.pathfindergroupuk.com

If you want to go, you need to act fast, i have space in my car for 1 (split ferry,petrol ) , you need to pay a sign up fee to the club and follow the steps to be eligable to jump ( doctors note, insurance)

also, i will be going to the Venlo event (allied only) which is east of eindhoven after the jumps on the friday 25th with catching the ferry on the 27th June to arrive back in the UK for 20:00

so out there for 7 days.

If anyone is seriously interested and has the bank balance to do this ( not cheap ) please get in touch asap so we can arrange the appropiate details.

confirmation by tuesday 8th june, if you are ago as i am booking everything on tuesday

Regards
Tom

Best of luck Tom!

I dunno what it is but back in the day the courses for jumps (Texel etc) were oversubscribed..... Perhaps we really are becoming a nation of chairborne piefinders?

Good Luck Tom!

I can remember when loads of people fought to get on these jump courses.... I wonder if people just can't be bothered any more?
