ON FOR DETAILS OF THE SOCIAL EVENING
Join
us for some paddling based fun including:
•
Kayak racing on our ERGO machines
• Talks: including trips to The Americas, Nepal, and a review
of the BCC year (Lea Valley, Wales, Dartmoor & Exmoor, The Tees
and one possible surprise talk)
• Phil’s (now infamous) quiz – can anyone remember
what a gunwale is?
A
curry will be available at a cost of £5 per person. You must pay
by Monday 20th so the correct number can be catered for. There will
be a vegetarian option. We
will be unable to provide food on the night for those who haven’t
paid. If you are not able to get to the pool in the next few weeks,
please email Dave if you want food.
Thank
you for continuing to support your club and the Committee look forward
to seeing you all on 25th February.
Yours Sincerely
David
