TRAINING DAYS

Training for the 2009 season has come to a close.

Enjoy the off-season and we will see you all again next year!

For more information contact Jennie on 0419236420.

 Please Note: 

Due to a change in the Australia wide Sleddog Insurance policy, if you are not a financial member of the CSDC or ASSA, you will need to pay $5 each time you train with the club to cover you for Group Accident and Public Liability insurance.

To get to Kowen Forest follow the directions below:-

From Civic follow the airport road and head towards Queanbeyan.  Take the left hand turn onto Sutton Road.  Follow Sutton Road for less than a kilometre and take the first right hand turn onto Kowen Road (the sign also says Molonglo Gorge).

This road soon becomes dirt and you should follow it straight ahead until you get to a locked gate where club members meet at 7.00 am.  If you are not at the gate by 7.15 am you will not be able to train.  Unfortunately the gate has to be locked behind us and we think that a 15 minute leeway is enough time for latecomers.

The training trails are another 5 kilometres into the forest.

From Queanbeyan follow Yass Road and turn right onto Sutton Road. 

Follow Sutton Road for less than a kilometre and take the first right hand turn onto Kowen Road (the sign also says Molonglo Gorge).

This road soon becomes dirt and you should follow it straight ahead until you get to a locked gate where club members meet at 7.00 am.  If you are not at the gate by 7.15 am you will not be able to train.  Unfortunately the gate has to be locked behind us and we think that a 15 minute leeway is enough time for latecomers.

What should you bring to a training day?

A very willing and excited woofer

Water and a bowl

Bike helmet, gloves and warm clothing

Stake-out line (you can use a star-picket with chain attached) and mallet.  A lead around a tree just won't be strong enough

Morning tea (we usually hang around after training for a social chat)

Plenty of enthusiasm
