Summer Programme 2019

MAY 2019 Regular features and one-off events are listed below. Details will show up on the Club Facebook page or email as we go along. REGULAR FEATURES Monday – Beginners’ Course Evenings from 20 May through to late July. This aims to equip people new to paddling with all the basic skills and strokes you need to be a competent member of a group on placid water. (Fully booked) Thursday – Indoor Pool Sessions Indoor pool sessions at West Buckland School resume in September, for intro work and rolling etc. Email to members at the beginning of the week that a session is on. Thursday – Sea kayaking summer training leading to the Sea Kayak and Sea Kayak Coastal award. Commences in late June. Contact Paul Greenway for more information. Friday – Kayak Surfing Friday evenings at Sandymere Beach, Westward Ho! or other local beaches depending on tide times. Introduction to kayak surfing when conditions are good and waves are small. Otherwise a great opportunity for the Club to meet and cream some waves. In the case of no waves there will usually be a short coastal paddle option. Details issued weekly by email or Facebook, conditions dependent.
