This year’s trip to Trabolgan will take place on the weekend of Friday the 24^th March to Sunday 26^th March, 2017.

The weekend activities will include workshops for parents and a workshop for children with diabetes. We also hope to run a workshop for siblings of children with diabetes. These will give parents an opportunity to share their experiences, speak with medical personnel and most importantly, to offer each other support. We will have our team leaders (many of whom have diabetes themselves), who will organise and supervise activities for children.

We have booked 28 houses for the weekend.  We do not like to refuse people, but as you may be aware, last year we were unable to accommodate families who left it late to book and Trabolgan had no further accommodation available. Therefore, we will only be able to accommodate the first 28 families, who book with full payment. We may  not be able to extend this number as we get closer to the event.

Families will be accommodated in self-catering apartments. Chestnut Type houses sleep 4-5 people and cost €275. Forest Oak houses sleep 6-7 people and cost €340. These prices include the use of the swimming pool, sports centre, crazy golf, indoor and outdoor play centres and night entertainment. We have booked 20 chestnut houses and 8 forest oak houses. Bookings will be taken on a first come-first served basis. Therefore it is essential that we receive  full payment by Friday 24^th February 2017. Please return the accompanying booking form by Friday 24^th.

Please Note: Staff at Trabolgan will not enter negotiations regarding refunds if families are unable to attend. They advise that insurance be taken out (at a cost of €11.50 per person) to cover cancellation, luggage and personal protection. Insurance forms will be issued with acknowledgement of payments for weekend trip received by the S.K. Club.

We hope you will be able to join us.
