DAY 164 - Garage Sale

THANK YOU TO ALL OUR HELPERS

A Huge thank you to everyone who helped out with the Garage Sale on Saturday. Plenty of donated goods were sold, items left over of value will be listed on trade-me to be sold.

Kiwi Allstars have setup a trademe account as a fundraiser to sell any items members or friends of members may want to get rid of.

If you are planning a big clean out and dont mind donating your no longer needed items to a great cause keep us in mind.

We will be sending more details about how the trade-me fundraiser will work.

Keep an eye out for the Swim-a-thon in February 2009

Team Accomodation
Free Spirit Resort in Darwin

The team accomodation has been booked at the Free Spiorit Resort in Darwin. The FreeSpirit Resort is a 4 star resort in Darwin, located 16kms south of Darwin CBD on the Stuart Highway. The cabins booked sleep 3 per cabin

The resort is only 13kms from the Darwin Airport. Palmerston (a common name) is only 3kms away. Set on 11 hectares of lush tropical landscaped gardens, the location and facilities are perfectly positioned to provide a relaxing haven to satisfy all needs, not 1 but 3 swimming pools to enjoy and our jumping pillow (for children of all ages, is the only one in the Territory).

MEALS
A huge task with most camps and trips is ensuring swimmers are provided with meals to fit around training and competions. The resort have agreed to provide meals at times of our choosing and provide a packed lunch for competitions.
