The Big Fat RePack.

[Guest]

ALL,

THIS EVENT IS ON SUNDAY!!!

The TVHGC Big Fat Repack

23th of March 2008

The Thames Valley www.tvhgc.co.uk/bfr "Big Fat Repack" is to run on Sunday the 23th of March 2008 at the Rivermead Leisure Complex, Reading.

There will be a zip slide to practice reserve deployment and the BHPA's Bill

Morris and team will be giving presentations on how to deploy and repack

your 'chute.

There will be BHPA qualified packers on hand offering help and advice, so everyone should leave with their 'chute repacked.

The cost this year is only £25, which is less than the cost of a commercial repack.

First-aid lectures (to be presented by Bob Nugent team) have once again been arranged to run in addition to the repacking talks. The First Aid talk will include dealing with fractures, back and head injuries. The aim of the talk is to make you feel confident to assess and take control of the situation, and will cover topics from how to call the emergency services to

administering basic first aid to a casualty.

Book online and pay using paypal www.tvhgc.co.uk/bfr

or if you prefer to pay by cheque application forms can be obtained from:

- The Thames Valley web site, www.tvhgc.co.uk/bfr

ANY NON BHPA MEMBERS WILL HAVE TO PAY A BHPA DAY MEMBERSHIP (ABOUT £10) ON TOP OF THE £25.

YOU CAN NOT TAKE YOUR PARAMOTOR DOWN THE ZIP SLIDE OR HAVE IT IN THE BUILDING FOR PETROL / SAFETY REASONS

MANY THANKS TO THE TVHGC Paragliding club for allowing entry.

YOU CAN NOT TAKE YOUR PARAMOTOR DOWN THE ZIP SLIDE OR HAVE IT IN THE BUILDING FOR PETROL / SAFETY REASONS

Some people just don't know what fun is!

We could have had a competition to see who got down the zipslide the quickest with engine running "who's next, on full throttle this time?"

Better than that, we could go back up the zip slide under power :D
