Diarmaid:
I had a list of all the instructors, their qualification levels, phone numbers, etc from last year (you need it for the grant application). Not sure now where it is; I think I might have given it to Mark or someone.

Lorcan:
Hey Zach

Just a quick note on your response to Dees post. I know throughout many clubs in the country, ie. college clubs. When they apply for their grants they include future training. Most clubs do not make there instructors pay for training or assesments as it will benefit the club.
By the way i'm not looking for money here.
I think it would be more beneficial to look for money for training up new instructors then paying the instructors that are members of the club.
And by that i mean current members of the college.
Just my 2 cents

kjt:
Sounds like a clever idea Lorcan

Ritchie:
hi lorcan,

in theory you have a really great idea man, and this years committee seriously considered it. Unfortunately we envisaged some problems. firstly, by the time a student has enough kayaking experience to complete the L2/3 instructors course they are either a final year student or close to being one. Secondly, in reality most graduates aren't that bothered going on club trips as they have little time outside their 9-5 jobs and prefer kayaking among the friends they made in college, or else their off travelling.
So basically we thought that there was little point, all new ideas are welcomed!!
