W: Scope charity office, how can I help you?
M: Oh hello. I’m ringing about the Dragon Boat Race that you’re asking people to take part in.
W: Oh yes, we still need a few more teams. Are you interested in joining the race?
M: Yes, we want to enter a team but we don’t know anything about it. Could I ask you for some more information first?
W: Of course.
M: I don’t even know when it’s being held.
W: It’s taking place on the 2nd July.
M: Right. And where’s it being held?
W: At the Brighton Marina. You take a right turning off the coast road or you can cycle along the seafront.
M: What time does the race start?
W: Well, the first heats begin at 10:00am --you need to register half an hour before that--9:30 and we really recommend that you aim to be there by 9. It’s a good idea to arrange a meeting place for your team.
M: Right. And the race is to help raise money for charity?
W: It is. We’re asking every team member to try and raise $35 by getting friends and/or relatives to sponsor them. Every crew member will receive a free tournament T-shirt if your team manages to raise $1,000 or more.
M: Oh that’s quite good.
W: Also we’re holding a raffle... every crew member who takes part in the race this season will be entered into a free Prize Draw.
M: Oh, what’s the prize?
W: It’s pretty good--it’s a holiday in Hong Kong.
M: Sounds good.
W: Is there anything else you need to know?
M: Could you just tell me a little bit more about the teams?
W: Well, you need to have a crew of 20 people for your dragon boat. And you then need to agree on who’s going to be the team captain. That would probably be you.
M: Fine. Um, I’ve got a group of 20 people who are interested. Do all the team members have to be a certain age?
W: Well there’s no age limit as such but if you have a team member who’s under 18 then they have to get their parents’ permission to take part.
M: Yes, that makes sense. What do you advise people to wear?
W: Well, most people wear a T-shirt, shorts and trainers. I certainly wouldn’t recommend that you wear jeans or boots. In fact, it’s a very good idea to bring some spare clothes. It can get quite cold and wet if the weather’s bad.
M: I see what you mean.
W: Have you got a name for your team?
M: Oh, not yet, no.
W: Well, you need to decide on one and then put it on the entrance form which I’ll send you.
M: Oh, OK.
