SUMMARY:Trabolgan Family Weekend
DESCRIPTION:** Please note this event has now been filled but we hope to run a similiar event later in the year for any families that have missed out.  \nThe Sweetpea Kidz Club is excited to announce their annual trip to Trabolgan will take place from the 1st to the 3rd of April 2016. \nThe 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. \nWe have booked 25 houses for the weekend. We do not like to refuse people\, but we are limited in the number of volunteers we can bring with us. Therefore\, we will only be able to accommodate the first 25 families\, who book with full payment. We will not be able to extend this number as we get closer to the event. \nFamilies will be accommodated in self-catering apartments. Chestnut Type houses sleep 4-5 people and cost €270. Forest Oak houses sleep 6-7 people and cost €320. 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 5 forest oak houses. Bookings will be taken on a first come-first served basis. \nPlease 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.
