U.S. SUMMER SPORTS CAMPS


"I have a number of places at U.S. Summer sports camp available to the more adventurous U.K. School students and I would be grateful for your assistance in making your pupils aware of the trips by having them visit our website where further information can be found. The students should then fully discuss their interest with their Parents/Guardians.

The 2010 Camps offer students not only a fantastic sporting experience but also, I believe a valuable life learning experience.

The 1 and 2 week trips are open to boys and girls of all athletic abilities who are aged 15 - 18 at time of travel and must be mature, have a healthy respect for others, adaptable, outgoing with a willingness to learn.

I would also appreciate any input you may be able to offer.

Kind regards,

STANLEY PARK CLUBHOUSE


Please note that it is intended to re-open the Stanley Park Clubhouse on Tuesday and Thursday with effect from Tuesday 2nd March 2010. Hopefully, by this time the arena lighting will be improved and more athletes will take advantage of the track and infield. The Clubhouse will also be open on Sunday 14th March to support the Spring 5k Road Race and Winter Warm-Up Open Meeting.
We will be selling hot and cold drinks, soups and bottled water. There will also be a variety of chocolates, sweets and crisps on offer.
We hope that BWFAC members will support the Clubhouse and the club by using this facility and we look forward to seeing you there.
