02.01.2022 Gday all! We didnt get a chance to have a chat at MATES tonight but wanted to keep you updated with whats happening with GUSS. Unfortunately our last camp was cancelled due to the current climate. But for those of you who had a spot, it is still secure for the next camp so dont worry! In the meantime please keep an eye on your emails for information regarding refunds. Unfortunately DDSC is not operating at the moment as the instructors are high risk so all GUSS camps have... been postponed until they are up and running and we can all be within 1.5m of each other again. Were brainstorming some ideas for activities we can do remotely in the meantime so you can still get the most out of your membership! Well be running a competition on instagram for a chance to win an extra spot on our next camp! Second place will win their catering paid for, and we all know uni students love free food to enter: make sure youre following GUSS on instagram, then tag us in your best gliding photo on your story! In the meantime, stay safe and reach out and talk to a friend. Well all be back in the skies before you know it!
