Don't forget there's a rowing race this Sunday (23rd) and so there will be no regular paddle at the Club. There are a couple of other trips running, so come along and broaden your paddling horizons!

Weekend Paddling Fun!

Lots going on at the Club last weekend - trips to both the Wye and North Wales, as well as all the usual stuff! If you missed those, there's plenty coming up in the next week or so - paddles on the Medway Estuary, River Stour, and tidal Cuckmere - so take advantage of the good weather and get in touch with the organisers to get booked in!

PS - no regular paddle next weekend due to rowing, don't forget!

Introduction to moving water

Saturday 6th October, Introduction to Moving Water - a day building confidence and having fun while trying to learning some of the techniques on moving water, utilising the weirs and canoe shoots on the river Medway.

We will start at the club at 9am to pick up kit, then head to Teston. In the afternoon we will move up to Yalding where we will hopefully find some different flows.

Please book a place by contacting Mary Cutts
