March 2008 Archives

An introductory 21 km distance paddle up the river, just past Indooroopilly Bridge. This is a chance to show you can paddle these distances. We will take sea kayaks.

There is no formal Saturday morning social paddle on Easter Saturday (22 March). However there is a Saturday social session the following Saturday (29 March). Similarly, there is no Tuesday evening pool session during the semester break. The final pool training session (prior to polo starting) is in the first week back - Tuesday 1 April.

Pool training at the UQ Pool. All old and new members are encouraged to come along.

A social trip down the river to the West End Markets. We'll stop for some coffee and back to semester get-together. Open to all Saturday morning paddlers, and a chance for members to meet each other. If you aren't able to paddle, please meet us at the markets anyway.
