"Big Day Out"
These trips are aimed at all members from 9 years to adult with One Star award and will allow you to get more trips under your belt before signing up for the Two Star. Children, families, adults are all welcome. Like the adult paddles, the trips will be mainly flat water with the odd section of excitement – a drop, slide or rapids – all of which can usually be portaged around, if preferred. We will stop en-route for a packed lunch (and possibly buy an ice cream or cuppa) and plan some fun activities for the break. Trips include use of the Club equipment and transport.
