Oceans 2012 Arrangements
Those going to Ocean Athletes, please email Caroline Sarfati at
caroline.sarfati@gmail.com with your accommodation and transport
requirements. We have accommodation booked for all the athletes
(around 40) plus 20 adults, and two vans. She needs to know
who needs accommodation and transport. It will be allocated
on a first come first served basis. This time we are staying at the
Mt Apartments not the back packers where we have stayed for the
past few years.
We also need two volunteers to drive the vans - this will mean
that these drivers do not pay the transport fee.
