Autumn and Winter Planning  

The seasons change. On Wednesday, 9th September, the sun will set at 19:38, I suggest that this will be our last Wednesday evening on - the -water session unless there is a group of people who can meet at 16:30 to be on the water by 17:00

We still have opportunities for daytime activity on the Wansbeck if we have people who can commit.

Excitingly, this is the time to arrange activities/trips/courses on the weekend.

We are going to do a White Water Kayak Moderate Leader Award programme, and a fantastic week of sea kayaking based in Palamos, Catalonia. (Here's a link to a preivious trip to get a taste of Sea Kayaking abroad; https://www.wansbeckpaddlesports.co.uk/general-4)

There are lots of other things that can be done - here are some that we have done before:

Week long trip sea kayaking in Angelsey in October

Programmes for White Water and Open Water Canoe Moderate Water Leader

Coach Training and assessments

Boat repair courses

Rolling clinics

Open Canoe weekends on the River Eden

Great Glen (https://www.wansbeckpaddlesports.co.uk/the-great-glen)

Social Events

We are open to new suggestions from club members. To explore this, we are holding a meeting at the club base, on Wednesday 16th September at 19:00. Tea, coffee and biscuits available. Any club member who wants to paddle through Autumn and Winter, and hopefully gain skills, understanding, confidence and experience are welcome to come along and build the autumn and winter programme.
