Splash and Dash day
« on: March 30, 2011 »
Hi All,

I am pondering the idea of organising a 'Splash and Dash Day' which would incorporate me coaching and rescuing you guys in kayaks and possibly canoes.
If you are interested in partaking, we could maybe make it a family day at Castlewellan with BBQ and possible camp.
Let me know what you think.. I am thinking of June/July time..

Are you talking about coaching us in rescue or using us to rescue in order to coach other people? There's a handful of peeps on here with canoes, I'd say we could definitely get a good crowd together for some fun on the water.

I'm in ofc.

Well when I say rescue.. I was thinking that I might have to if peeps fall in.. But it might be good at the end of the day to teach you how to.

Would love to, done a bit of kayaking and canoeing, but don't have my own. So if we can hire kit then I'm in.

I should be able to get a trailer of kayaks from the outdoor centre I work in, along with BA's.

I'd be keen for a wee paddle around, but would either need to hire or hop on board with someone else :)  Castlewellan Lake sounds good as well, as does BBQ after!

We should definitely get some numbers together for this, it sounds like an ace idea.
