Registration is closed

This is an introduction session for Canoe Club Members and invite to potential new members for Junior Shepaddle girls.  It is aimed at girls year 6 + to come and try kayaking.  

You are welcome to bring your own kayaks and paddles, but you can also hire the canoe clubs kits at a charge of £10 per person.

We will meet at 2 ready to put on buoyancy aids, find your paddle and kayak.  Please be ready in your wetsuits (if you have them, if not leggings/fleece/waterproof/cag) and shoes/trainers you are happy to get wet (shoes a must/Compulsory)

We will launch from Frankwell slipway, next to the cricket car parking and paddle upstream towards the showground.  We will practice some skill and play games on our way.

We will postpone and rearrange if the weather looks atrocious or the river is high.

Directions to car parking meeting point.  Head straight into Frankwell Car Park.  When you reach the hedge turn right and then at the end of the parking row, turn left into the gateway.  This is the cricket car park and the slip way is on your right.  You can park here while the kayak session is taking place.  The canoe club containers are just passed the cricket pavilion.
