Next at Club Night
Controlling events
Checking a kite
Rosie's focus last week at the COACH building was how we make courses Fun, Fair & Safe. This Thursday, Steve Robertson continues the theme of appraising & improving courses, relating his experience of controlling a wide range of events. Physical training continues as usual.
At 6.30pm, from the Link room, Tess and Vikki will be looking and discussing control descriptions and doing a one mile loop. Please arrive on time if you can. All are welcome to join in.
After this- at 7.30pm (in the Park Room) - Steve Robertson (a Grade 2 Controller) will be giving some personal reflections on being a controller, he has had a lot of experience and it should be an interesting and informative evening. Do come!
Tess and Vikki will continue training with anyone who doesn’t wish to go to Steve’s session.
Rosie talked about controlling last week; Steve follows on this week
Refreshments will be available afterwards for both groups.
