NOW AT 9AM BECAUSE WE ARE LAZY
Do you want to get up to go kayaking in the cold and damp? Of course you do!
Will be a mix of sprints, drills, chat, and general hard work but also fun.
Please make sure you are already comfortable wearing a spraydeck and with basic boat skills before coming (just because swimming at 9am isn't fun for anyone involved).
Can't wait to see you there
Meet at the boat house, now at 6pm.
We will paddle to town and back, so please make sure you are comfortable paddling that distance. If unsure, please ask Charlotte or Josh.
From the 5th – 9th of June.
Expected cost including: food, accommodation, and transport,
is about £100.
This trip Is planned to have a lot of activities, but there
is no obligation to paddle every day. Some of the activities panned so far:
easy white water on the Dee, a trip to the upper Tryweryn if it is releasing, then also a trip to the lower Tryweryn and
maybe some other rivers if we have water. One day we might have a mini Dee fest
with lots of fun and little challenges that all abilities can take part in. Flat
water paddles along the canal that includes the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct are also planned
(hopefully you don’t need to break the ice to get across it as I did in December). The plan is for it to be quite a social event, with a party planned on the 7th.
Please pay £24 to secure your place so I can pay for the
scout hut. The rest will be payable after the event, and the exact cost has
been worked out.
You will need a sleeping bag and roll mat as the scout hut doesn’t have beds. The club has some that can be borrowed, and there are showers. :) If you would like to sleep comfortably you can buy an air bed for as little as £7 and I can bring a pump that can be used to blow it up.
