Sydney 2010

hey

It’s time to get ready for World Rugby Festival 2010 in Sydney,
Australia

http://www.goldenoldiessports.com/go_festivals/rugby_festivals/world-rugby-festival-2010.htm

You don't have to be old~~anyone interested can come along as supporters.

I need to know if you are interested as soon as possible.

I need your deposit by September 25th, 2009. That's the day I am making the reservation with Golden Oldies. We can add people later but risk beingmoved to a hotel that is less quality or more expensive.

Details

I will be asking for top 3 hotel choices in the 2100 AUD- 1950 AUD range. At the current exchange rate which I check daily, that is$1758-$1590 USD. The room rate is based on double occupancy.The deposit required by Golden Oldies is 300.00 AUD ($251 US).The last day to receive a FULL refund is March 25th, 2010.All cancellations after that time will not receive a refund and will berequired to pay the balance on the trip. If WE pay YOU pay or you find your own replacement.

Trip must be paid in full by June 25, 2010.

This money goes to Golden Oldies and does not includejersey or pins, airfare or spending money.

Airfare right now is running about $900

Payments/Installments will be due in October-January-February-March-April-May-June on the 15th of themonth.

That's so that I can continue to pay golden oldies. They require 3 installments, but if we do it in several this allows you to spread your costs out.

Amount due each month will be approx $257 per person.

If it makes it easier for you to put the money back, you can send memoney every week or everytwo weeks or every month.

I will send you a receipt so that you feel confident that the money is there if you have to back out by March 25th.

Iwill plan a golden oldies travel party sometime in October or November when I have a better of idea of who is committing. We will need fundraising ideas to help offset costs of the trip that we don't pay to Golden oldies (like pins, jersey) and if anyone knows of someone who might want to donate, we can put names on a shirt or jacket.

Use fbigoldenoldies@gmail.com for all Golden Oldies messages. It was set up just for this trip and is connected to a Facebook page, a blogspot and googlegroup and google website. That is where I will put information as I get it and reminders for payment.If you have any questions give me a call
