Taupo training camp information 2010.

Here is the schedule for the training camp in Taupo, which will be held between the 27th and 31st of January. If you are interested in attending, and have not contacted me - then please do so asap! You can arrive on which ever day you wish, and there is accommodation available in rented houses on a first in first served basis. Partners can stay, although there are limited double rooms. If you are staying in the organized accommodation, the cost will be for the duration that the house is rented for (3 or 5 nights).  

Costs for the camp are:

camp fees:  $150 coached and $200 un-coached.

Accommodation: Will depend on final numbers, approximately $70-85 per night last year, and I expect similar this year. 

You are responsible for your own food, however there are group options for evening meals (shared cost) if you wish to join in.
