Thursday Evening Paddle

The first evening paddle of the summer term. This is a great way to relax during the exams period, take whatever boat you are comfortable in. We will paddle up to Prebends Bridge and possibly play some games when we get there. 

You should be comfortable paddling that distance (and back) at a leisurely pace. You can use one of the canoes if you aren't comfortable in a kayak. 

Meet at the boathouse at 18:00. We should be off the water by 20:00.

Reunion

It is that time again, every three years Reunion comes around!
This event comes around so that everyone gets at least one Reunion during their academic studies! Alumni return to join current DUCC members in a weekend to celebrate DUCC. 
DATES ARE: 6TH-8TH June 
(immediately after exams and before the Alps, there will not be any trip clashes etc)

What does Reunion consist of?

It is a weekend that involves past members all returning to Durham:

Friday evening - pub, chill and chat for students and those who have arrived early.

Saturday - WW river trip (may the relative chaos unfold, a river will be chosen for everyone, depending on rain and ability - last time it was a scrappy HFLF with extortionate amount of safety due to all the alumni returning!)

Reunion meal - a 3 course meal including a reception drink and 1/2 wine per person included in the ticket, this will be at the Masonic hall and from memory the food was excellent and worth it.
Cost of the ticket is expected to be £40 for students but the more that go the cheaper it will be!

Sunday - picnic, River Wear paddle and general socialable meet up!

Any queries speak with Charlotte on behalf of the Fire King (Martin, FoDUCC president), this form is just to get rough number of interest for students as our tickets are cheaper!
