Kombatan Camp 2009

[Richard Haye]

Does anyone know when the IPMAF camp is in 2009? I wanna bring some Norwegian Vikings to the camp.

I'm sure Mr. Hartman (http://www.fmatalk.com/member.php?u=3) knows! Let's hope he notices this thread.

[Datu Tim Hartman]

I'm waiting for the dates so I can update the IPMAF site. It should be the last two weeks of April. Once I get the exact dates I will post them.

Those dates look a little long that is nearly 2.5 weeks. The last 3 camps have gone for a max of 2 weeks normally a little shorter.. I would expect a later start date .. could be wrong wouldn't be the first time!

That is a information what i get from Master Michael Ermac.

If it came from Master Michael then the dates are probably on the money!

Does anyone have information that confirms the given dates for the IPMAF Camp 2009?

- Is the 20th of April the date we travel from Manila to Hinigaran or is it the date when the training starts? (That would make April 19th the travel day).
- Is the price the same as previous years?
- Is the same equipment included?
- Any further information would also be appreciated.

Since we try to bring some students from Sweden, Norway and Finland (that's my students and Master Johan Skalbergs students from Sweden, Richie Hayes students from Norway and Tomi Harells gang from Finland) we need more information pretty soon for the planning of vacations, travelling and other preparations...

I will email these questions to Mr Mike Bowers since his emailadress is posted on the link above. Maybe he is able to give more answers...

Heikki let me know if you hear anything.. Also would be worth dropping a mail to Andy he may already have heard from GM or Master Mike.

Hi Juerg,

If you get a chance you direct us to a place to reserve a spot and also the cost breakdown of the event. Thanks.

Hallo Brian

Well, I have not yet the final prize yet from GM Ernesto, but you could simply email him to: ipmaf@hotmail.com

You will only have to arrange your flights to/from Manila, all domestic flights and transfers, accommodation, etc can be arranged via GM Enresto directly.
