----**NOTE: The river levels have the potential to get a lil *spicy* this time of year so the session may be called off last minute. Keep an eye on the groupchat! **----THE WEDNESDAY WARRIORS RETURN AT MC 13:30-15:30
The usual Wednesday session! Open to beginners and is simply a really chill couple hours on the River Wear. If you did a fresher's session and enjoyed it this is probably the next session for you - some games, some skills, lots of fun.
Please bring a fleece to wear on the water, spare shoes, plenty of spare clothes and a towel.
See you there!
PS (We're starting this at 8 spaces but this will increase as more leaders sign up, so if it's full check back later!)

Do you want to get up at 7am to go kayaking in the cold and damp? Of course you do!
Meet at the boathouse at 7:15am, off the water by 8:30am so everyone can get to those all important 9am lectures. 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 7am isn't fun for anyone involved). Ask Sarah/Nick/Joe any questions!
Can't wait to see you there
No late Thursday pool session to complain about; why not end the week right with a nice early fitness session on the water Friday morning?
Hi all - hope you had a wonderful Christmas and are excited to return back soon for a term packed full of kayaking!
I am putting out this interest form for Scotland 2023 so I can get a general idea of numbers as it is much more specific for a kayaking week.
The conceptual dates are the 18th (early morning leave) to returning on the 23rd (late evening) of March.
Accommodation pricing varies depending on the number of people but currently ranges from £90 - £125. Which is why knowing numbers is so important. (Note fuel and food will also cost on top of this accommodation price)
This is a whitewater trip which will require members to be confident with a spray deck and comfortable on white water. You must have done some whitewater with the club prior to this trip.
Any queries give Charlotte a message!

NOTE: THIS DOES NOT COMMIT OR CONFIRM YOU TO COMING - it is only to see numbers of interest!
THE WEDNESDAY WARRIORS RETURN AT MC 13:30-15:30 For the first outing of second term.
The usual Wednesday session! Open to beginners and is just a really chill couple of hours on the river Wear.
Please bring a fleece to wear on the water, spare shoes, plenty of spare clothes and a towel.
First session of term. Start it right with a nice early start on the river Monday morning.
Looking forward to seeing you bright and early on the water, though if you are not comfortable in a boat yet, please come to the Wednesday session first.
18:00
Annual Christmas meal at Spags!!!
Ok after the feedback on the Facebook poll, we will be holding a Christmas meal! It will be at Spags on Tuesday 6th December at 18:00.
Please sign up on the website event I have created. The booking does require a £5 deposit per person (this will just be taken off your bill at the end). I will send out information regarding paying that later on.
I might also do preorders for food depending on numbers, but I will sort that out later.
I've enquired for 20 people, but that can change depending on interest. Please feel free to bring a friend along if you wish! It should be a great night :))
Any questions, please drop me a message x
Its going to be cold.

Meet at the boathouse at 7:30 pm for transport to Darlington for the Pool session. We should arrive back and be done by 11pm
There are limited spaces based on the number of cars we have - so sorry if you can't get on.
This session will focus on the general boat handling skills - rolling and T-rescue in particular.
We may also try to build in some basic polo skills depending on group size and ability.

Saturday 26/11/22 - 20:00 at Cuth's Bar!
Join us for another bar crawl, this time along the Bailey!
The theme is White Lies, these can be club/kayaking related, or just random white lies. Please wear a white t-shirt with your white lie displayed on the front/back.
As always, we will be updating our progress along the bar crawl on the socials chat, so if you want to join later you can (if you aren't on the socials chat please message me or comment on this event so we can add you).
