Event: Hurley Session Saturday: 13th February 2010 We are heading out to Hurley for a morning session on Saturday 13th February – meeting in the car park at 10.00 and planning to finish around 1pm (or when you’re too tired to continue !) They’ll be no club fees to pay, but the usual fees for borrowing kit will apply which in this case will mean £5 for a boat, and £5 for all other equipment (eg paddles, spraydecks etc.) Contact: Tiffany Hall at tiffany_m_hall@hotmail.com
Event: Pool Session Initiative and News Location: Gurnell Pool Date: 25 Feb 2010 Time: 21:00 to 22:15 Description: Part of CPCC's pool initiative and progressing on from the successful Open canoe in the pool. For this session (25 Feb), it's the turn of the sea kayak. Once again, all those who fancy trying out a sea kayak, asking questions and hearing stories from Graham King (sea kayaker), do come along and join us. Information: If your group are looking to use the pool session to develop a skill requiring space, it is advisable to choose an alternative week as the sea kayak will take up a large amount of space on the 25th.
