Paddling for the girlies!
Karen:
I'm seeing about organising a bit of a training weekend just for us girls in the New Year. We have some fantastic instructors lined up including Kim Siekerman :o, who have agreed to run the course so I just need to know how many people would be interested in doing it and when would suit everyone.
It's looking like a 2 day course, doing some river skills training with some emphasis on rescue and rescue set up, plus maybe a day of freestyle. We'll concentrate on the ways girls tend to paddle differently from guys, with slightly different techniques and problems and such. This should be good also for the varsities, as this is why it was initially proposed, to help build up a stronger female competition. It's going to be fun anyway!
We are aiming it at around level 3 upwards, but this can be tailored up or down depending on who's interested! ;D
So let me know here if you are interested!
JODY:
I'd be interested.... but i dont think i can enter varsities, does this matter :-[
Lucy:
I'd be up for it Karen. Just need to know when so I can say for definite. But I don't have my level three. But I intent on getting that anyway.

Nuala:
I'm definitely interested. I also want to get to any REC3's or Level 4 training organised though, and have downriver training on the 18th of January I think. And live in Limerick.
I'll come if at all feasible.
