Club Getaway w/ ALB - Volleyball Vacations.com

AVP Pro Albert ("Al-B") Hannemann <http://www.alhannemann.com/> is coming to
Club Getaway <http://www.clubgetaway.com/> in Kent, CT. to run a Volleyball
Vacation <http://www.VolleyballVacations.com> weekend of instruction,
pickup play and general partying.

Club Getaway is a "summer camp for adults" in Kent, CT which is
about two hours from Rockland. I've been going there for 7 years - even met
my wife there. I went almost every weekend and eventually joined the staff
there.

I've been helping Albert for years with these events because I admire the
dedication he has to making sure everyone has a good time and gets some good
personal instruction with their game. Al has played (and won) at the
highest levels of Pro Beach volleyball and Collegiate Division I (with UCLA
and Hawaii). I've known the guy for 11 years and I'm still amazed at the
depth at which he and other pros understand the game. You can learn more
from 5 minutes of instruction with this guy than you'll probably learn in 5
years playing on your own. Al also is one of the very best hand-setters
on the tour and he's helped a lot of people who thought they could never
handset into setters.

You'll also get a chance to play with/against Al. (Al's game is so good
that he can make ANYONE he plays with look like a star hitting those utterly
delicious handsets of his!)

Here's the rub: The weekend is like $439 and with the absurdly large CT
state "room tax" it comes to about $480. Club Getaway sells out almost
every weekend (it's that popular) and thus just isn't very prone to
discounting but.

While it isn't much... I can get anyone who's never been there before a $25
discount. Plus, people who sign up for the volleyball event will get a
FREE book of bar tickets to buy drinks (a $20 value) and a gift bag full of
AVP gear and signed surprises.
