Time for another BUCS event. This time it's paddling down a river as fast as you can!
BUCS white water race is held on the river Washburn in Yorkshire. Like with slalom, you can enter in kayak, C1 or C2. There are 2 races: a sprint down a fairly short section and a longer 20 minute marathon type thing.Â
Again, you don't have to be the best paddler to give it a shot, but we'd like you to have done a bit of white water/river paddling beforehand. Any questions, shoot the exec a message.
Entries close 6th February

In February we are heading over to the Lake District for a weekend. We will be paddling a selection of rivers with stuff that anyone can do and we might even get chance to do other activities too.
We will be staying in a hall, so no need for camping in the cold! The trip will probably cost around £40, including fuel, food and accommodation.
And if a weekend paddling isn't exciting enough, there will be a mystery activity on Saturday evening!
Any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
