NEWSA War Vets Program Review 
Fact File
Group: NEWSA Veterans Conference
Date: 7 August 2009
Size: 23 Delegates
Location: Joondoburri Conference Venue, Bribie Island QLD
Overview: Dutch War Veterans (WW2) and their partners held an annual meeting to retell history and plan for future events and issues relavant to NEWSA. To add an element of fun to the occasion, the group organiser arranged some didjeridu lessons to test the courage of the courageous.
Roll-out: After lunch and a review discussion on the final day, an introduction and didjeridu presentation was held in the meeting room. Participants enjoyed learning all about culture and history, before the lesson and music circles began. The group quickly overcame some strong assumptions that their age and health would inhibit their playing ability, and the laughter and surprise rang out all afternoon!
Testimonials:
“Thanks for music lesson with didgeridoo, we had many laughs, and a good time was had by all.“
“I think they surprised themselves at how much they could do, and your easy going and fun style made it a memorable and very enjoyable experience.“
