First official notice for Caloundra reunion 2014
Reunion Caloundra
2014
G’day all,
At a meeting held this week we finalised some of the major
points for the 2014 reunion. Most of the decisions were made using feedback
from the questionnaire sent out by Terry late last year. We know not all will
be happy with what we have come up with but we have done our best given the
information provided.
Dates
The dates for the reunion are as follows:
10 February 2014
To 15 February 2014.
The dates were arrived at due to:
·
The best weather conditions through the year
·
The finish of the school holidays and
·
The best tariffs available.
Accommodation
We recommend one of two parks:
The Caloundra Waterfront Holiday Park or Golden
Beach Holiday Park.

Resort and Holiday
Units
It would be impossible to list or recommend this style of
accommodation here, as there are so many and at all price ranges. We have
listed below two guides which will assist.
We have also placed below a link to all the information
centres on the Sunshine Coast.
Registration
Attached is a registration form we would like you to fill out
and return and soon as you can. A small commitment fee of $5 per family is
required not per person. The form will assist us in planning, so a quick
return will help.
Memorabilia
Memorabilia will be limited to a Cap and Stubby Holder as
stated in our previous email. As soon as we have the design and price sorted
out we will send out a return form for the purchase of the items.
Events
It has been stated by members that we tend to Over-Organise
things and that members never had time to spend in their smaller groups (hut
group, year of service). So this reunion we will be trying a self-pacing week
of events. In other words you organise your own day. The Power Boat Club will
allow us to have a “Happy Hour” (or two or three) at the completion of each
day. (This will be a free can and
wine bar, depending on the how much we drink determines the length of time the
bar stays open) In this way we will be able to meet in fellowship and discuss
or recommend outings for others. We will have staff members from other clubs,
pubs, taverns and tourist attractions at our registration day to assist you to
plan your week.
Reunion Dinner
The reunion Dinner is to be held at the Power Boat Club. We
will send out a separate notification on the dinner with cost and menu. However,
depending on how much we spend on the happy hours and how we go with the
raffles, we will try to put as much over the bar as we can. That is our
commitment to you.
Raffles
Once again we will be running raffles to help subsidise the
reunion. To that end, if you have any prizes we can use please contact:
