You've taken your first step and joined SPICE, and the next step is to come along to your first event. I know this can be a daunting prospect when you don't know anyone else in the group, but there's no need to be apprehensive - SPICER's are a friendly bunch! Most of us come along on our own to events, so we are all well used to meeting and welcoming new people. We also remember what it was like booking our first event and turning up apprehensively not quite knowing what to expect! Here’s a few tips of good ways to get started.
- Weekends Away - These successful weekends are one of the best ways to get into the group. They can vary from the ever-popular Bunk Barn accommodation to Luxury Hotels with swimming pool and spa. Whatever your choice or budget, all spicers together for 48 hours will ensure a great time.
- Action events - A great way to get into Spice is jump in the deep end and book yourself onto an action event such as Dragon Boating, Fire Eating, Windsurfing or Formula Ford Race Days. This could be why you joined spice - to try the more adventurous, adrenaline, addictive events.
- Sports Activities - Why not join in Badminton, Rounders, Unihoc or any of the other team events to get to know other members. It doesn’t matter if you’ve not played since school, the co-ordinator will put mixed abilities together to ensure a fair game for all.
- Socials - Our dinner shuffles and new members meals are good fun, good food and good for meeting plenty of Spicers. This gives you a chance to meet other members and we have name badgers so no need to worry about remembering names. See the write-up’s in the Newsletter.
