April 2009 Archives

A great weekend (25-26 Aug) at Goolang (near Grafton in NSW). The perfect next step after Wivenhoe intro day.

Marj Morgan (last year's club treasurer) has started a website aimed at helping women in outdoor education and recreation activities. Check it out at http://www.girlsoutdoors.org

It's become too dark, so Wed training has shifted to a 4:30 PM (meet) and is now weekly. The final race of this season is this Wednesday (29 Apr). A regular Sunday morning (dawn) paddle is starting (early 5:30 AM).

Easter weekend at the Everglades. Across lake Cootharaba from Elanda Point, and up the Noosa river. [ on hold - all campsites booked. Awaiting a new date]

A sea kayak training day at Paradise point (Gold coast). Suitable for beginners who have been kayaking on the river.

Basic whitewater kayaking techniques at Wivenhoe dam. Your chance to try a bit of whitewater kayaking. Calm water, moving water, and one very optional grade 2 rapid. Don't miss out. Good for other kayaking disciplines.

Saturday 4 April will be a pre-Easter paddle to the Market. Bring some money and set aside more of your morning. For those not going to Wivenhoe dam.
