Just paid up for 2, but in a separate post it states that the beginners clinic starts 11 June. Is that correct?

I believe that June 4th is the correct date. I just sent a PM to Tony to verify the date.

June the 4th is the correct date, june 11th is the correct date, we changed it at the meeting a few months back to allow Harry Netzer to help coordinate the event (he had drill the following week) there was one very early thread perhaps on the club event list where it was listed as the 4th.

Tony, you need to resolve the change in the date with the 3 people who already registered for the clinic: Jonathan & Kristin Tippett and Chris Higginbotham.

Dan, I just checked the paypal account and don't see any payment from you. Sometimes the transaction isn't posted right away. I'll check again later this evening and let you know if it comes thru.

I didn't use paypal, just used the credit card option. After putting the card Information in I hit " continue " and nothing happened. Just sat there. Normally it would go to the next page saying payment recieved, reciept number is... didn't happen. Called Tony and he said I can pay it when I get up there. Question is, did the registration application go thru?

And and apparently more to come. MY daughter's boyfriend would like to attend I'm getting him to fill out the applications and join the organisation. I will put him in My Remix and now my daughter is saying she would like to try it again using my wife's sit on top. Its going be a busy weekend....

Dan, applications are in for Nicholas and Lila. The registration for Nicholas says he is paying online but there is no posting for him in Paypal (which is where I would see it if you paid online by credit card thru Paypal). The registration for Lila indicates that she is paying by mail.

Post by Dan Waller on Apr 23, 2016 21:00:19 GMT -5
Yep, sending you a check for both of them. And Scott, (Lila's boyfriend) had problems as well trying to pay for his new membership. He printed everything and will mail membership and clinic applications with check to you, by mail. Don't know what to tell you, except something is buggered there Boss.....

I think he made a mistake, tried to go back and fix it but it wouldn't let him and couldn't pay so he never got to set his user name and password. Buggered again

Possibly have two more students coming, Rick Holicker, (long time friend and my 'other', attorney) and Daniel Stapleton, (neighbor) Rick has a little canoeing experience from many moons ago but both should be considered totally inexperienced with potential mid-life crisis issues. Problem is I only have enough gear for one of them. If they both sign up will need another loaner boat with all the gear.
