Remember Me
All along the River Medway, paddlers are getting out with the bin bags and cleaning up. WAM are doing their section further upstream, and Maidstone Canoe Club are doing our stretch of the river also.
Please come and help out if you can - it will only be for a couple of hours. We've all seen photos of fish & seabirds choked with plastic - this is a genuine opportunity to help do something about it!
See you Sunday morning, 9:30am!
River level looks fine for tomorrow so trip will be on, may be a few fallen trees to look out for. I will be at the getin dorking about 10:00 Geoff

The weather's lovely, the water's warm (or at least warmer), and there are still spaces left on our Refresher Session this weekend! If you haven't paddled much over the winter and are feeling a bit rusty, or haven't paddled at all since your beginner course last year and want a brush-up, this is the place to start. See you there!
Yesterday was the first morning of Spring. Tomorrow evening is the first pool session of Spring. See you there!

Please note that Bryn is the new Secretary.
