Bass District Development Workshop/Board Paddling Session

On Sunday April 23rd, Venus Bay SLSC will be hosting Harriet Brown for a workshop and board paddling session. Harriet is a World Ironwoman Champion, 2 x Nutri-Grain Ironwoman Series Champion, and 3 x Molokai to Oahu Paddleboard Champion & Record Holder. She started her Lifesaving career at Ocean Grove in Victoria before moving to QLD to compete
professionally.

Harriet's workshop will focus on nutrition for female athletes and discuss how female athletes can fuel their bodies for training and to
race at their best. As food is so intricately tied to body image it can sometimes be hard to see the positives food can give us. In this
presentation, Harriet shares her journey with food and focuses on how to develop a positive relationship with food. The workshop will commence at 2pm and run for approximately an hour with questions at the end. Following this she will run a general Q&A session
plus a practical board training session for any club members (male and female) who would like to attend. The day would then conclude approximately around 4:30/5pm.

Date: Sunday, 23rd April 2023
Time: 2pm - 5pm
Location: Venus Bay SLSC

If any member is interested in attending please contact Terry Aslanidis - memberdevelopment@woolamaibeach.asn.au. If there are a few members interested, we will be able to car pool together.

Presentation Night Committee

Want to be a part of the Presentation Night Committee for 2023? There are a range of tasks that need to be completed to make a successful Presentation Night run smoothly and the best part is you do not require any previous skills to help out.
