2007 Ocean Challenge Series

Yes it has been a while coming but we are finally getting organised for the 2007 Ocean Challenge Series.  I attach a poster with the details.

The 2007 Ocean Challenge Series has a few changes since last year. We will not hold the Mandurah Split race, not because we didn't want to, but it just wouldn't fit into a very tight calendar of events prior to Xmas.  We hope it will be back in 2008.

However, there will be another 2 new races into 2008, which haven't been advertised yet. The first is the Fremantle to Mindarie Keys Teams Relay 20 January 2008 and the second is the Fremantle to North Cottesloe 08 Dash for Cash 9 February 2008.

Entries for the races we organise will be available via my website www.myocean.com.au by the 10^th of October 2007 and will be an online system. The Website is being upgraded at the moment, so please be patient and gentle with it!?

Could you please forward this mail to anyone that might be interested in these events and please phone myself or Dean if you have any questions.

Talk soon and happy training!

The East Coast Ocean Challenge is Sydney's premier ski and surf craft endurance event. The East Coast Ocean Challenge was extremely successful in its first season, now in its second season is attracting enormous interest.

This exciting, prestigious event attracts elite competitors from around Australia and overseas, and receives widespread media exposure. It is anticipated that approximately 400 competitors will participate this year, with significant increases expected as ECOC grows into one of the premier paddling events on the international paddling calendar.

The race organisers Tom Woodriff (Ozpaddle) and Stephen Ford (Training Aid Australia) have developed this event to donate the profits to local Surf Life Saving Clubs for the purchasing of life saving equipment.
