Hi All,

Sunday (7th June):

Kayak surfing trip to Scarborough. 

Currently two stars on MagicSeaweed. Down as an Intermediate trip - but
novices who have a few river sessions under their belt are welcome (but
be prepared to get wet J).  Meet at clubhouse at 9.00 a.m.

n.b. There is also a Washburn release on both Saturday and Sunday over
the weekend.

Coming up:

Monday June 8th.  . Next Committee Meeting. 7.30 p.m. at Vesper Gate

Sunday 21st June. Leeds Canoe Club Washburn Release. Volunteers required
to help collect money, set up marquee, barbeque, etc. -  any help
appreciated - whole or part day - as many of our regular volunteers will
be away in the Alps.  If you can help out please let me or Kelvin know.

Sunday 28th June. Next Beginner's trip. Destination to be decided on
day.

Saturday 11th July. Kirkstall Festival.   LCC run a 'come and try it'
day on the river beside the Abbey. Volunteers also appreciated for this
one - people with coaching quals/CST on the water doing safety, bank
support getting people kitted up and in and out of boats etc. 

----------------

 

Pool sessions on Thursdays 

 

Only people with bands are allowed to paddle. We are limited to the
number of boats we can have in the pool (a stipulation by the leisure
centre), so if you come late you probably won't get a boat. Please check
with me or the lifeguard BEFORE you get changed to see if there is any
space available. If there isn't space, you can try to persuade a mate
who has a band to share their boat, but the negotiations are down to
you.

 

If you bring your own boat it must be CLEAN (inside as well as out - no
mud, sand, dead leaves etc.), and have padding front and back. Secure
padding please - not half-hearted bits of sticky tape that come off as
soon as the boat hits the water!

 

We've been asked by the swimming team who are in the pool before us that
we don't go out on the pool side until they are finished.  Please stay
in the changing rooms until they start to pack up.

 

Also - if you want to join in with the public swim after our pool
session - you need to pay in advance at reception.

 

Cheers,

 

Steve
