Dear Richard
I understand that you are one of the contact 
persons for Leeds Canoe Club.
I am 
writing to let you know that the 2010 Dalsland Canoe Marathon in West Sweden 
will be held on 14th August. I do hope the event will be of interest to your 
members.
Nature Travels, the UK specialist for outdoor experiences in 
Sweden, is pleased to announce that we are the sole UK agent for 
the Dalsland Canoe Marathon. We offer registration and booking for the 
event, kayak and canoe hire for race day, a choice of accommodation in the area 
and additional activities before and/or after the competition. 
The Dalsland Canoe Marathon is Sweden’s largest canoe and kayak event. 
The course runs 55km through the stunning lake and river landscape of Dalsland 
in West Sweden, easily accessible from Gothenburg. The marathon is a challenging 
but fun event ideal for individuals, couples, small private groups or canoe and 
kayak clubs. Spectators are also very welcome.
 
Almost 1000 paddlers participated in the marathon in 2009, including a 
number from UK canoe and kayak clubs, and international interest is 
growing each year. The event is open to committed paddlers and enthusiastic 
amateurs alike, with competitors entering in one of the following 
classes:
 
	* K1 elite 
	* K1 single kayak 
	* K2 double kayak 
	* Canadian Canoe 
	* There is also a range of Junior classes. The Junior course covers  20.7km and is open to competitors aged 12-18. 
I have also attached a poster in PDF format with information for the 
event, which you may wish to forward to the appropriate persons or display on 
your club noticeboard.
