PGL Travel Ltd is delighted to announce that they will be the main sponsors
of the 2006 National Student Rodeo Championship.
PGL started out in business in 1957 by providing pioneering
open canoeing holidays down the River Wye. Almost 50 years on and our
association with water based activities is just as important to use
now as it was then. Each year PGL are responsible for giving over 100,000
children their first taste of being on the water. From the National
Sailing Academy in Portland to the sun soaked waters of the French Mediterranean,
PGL employs hundred of paddlers, sailors, surfers and windsurfers to
help deliver holidays of a lifetime.
At PGL we recognise the dedication and skill level
needed to compete in such events and the benefits associated with the
sport of kayaking. PGL are delighted that we are able to support such
a fantastic event and for those who are keen to turn their passions
on the water into a profession – we’ll be on hand throughout
the weekend to talk to you about all our employment opportunities.
