Here are the details: Where : Blairgowrie Community Hall, 12 William Rd. https://goo.gl/maps/HqeFZG8PsBF2 When : 9.30 to 4.00pm, Saturday 14 December  Meet : at the Heidelberg West Dojo at 7.00am and depart at 7.30am Cost : $20.00 VKR members, $10.00 Nanseikan members Food : BYO. Hall has full kitchen with fridge, stove, microwave, etc. Dinner will be picnic or BBQ on the foreshore. We'll be taking the St Pius PS bus which will fit about 10 people but we'll also need a couple of cars to help transport everyone's bogu. Hopefully the weather will be warm enough for a swim after we finish training for the day, although as last year showed, some people will go for a swim no matter what the temperature. So bring your bathers!
