Title: Banterful Boyne Saturday 1-11-14
Post by: Vettie on October 28, 2014, 21:06:10

Sluicefest is running this weekend, but FEAR NOT, we're still serving up your weekly river madness!!

When:    This Saturday November 1st

Where:    The wonderful Boyne

The plan:   Meet at the Boathouse at 10am
Give Andy a text on 085 789 7269 or Ross on 087 245 6200 if you’re not sure where to go!
Hopefully we'll run through some things for Level 2/3 assessments next weekend (Saturday 8th) !!

What to bring:   
•   €10! This covers the cost of the bus and instructors

•   Warm clothes!!!! ….you know the drill !!
(avoid cotton at all costs! It makes you very, very cold when you’re wet). Anything made out of 'poly-' materials is a good bet!  Fleeces, fleeces, fleeces! Tights make a really good layer (even the lads should consider investing!!) If you have a wetsuit bring it! If not, the club has a small selection of them...try to get to the boathouse on time to get first pick!

You can never, ever have enough layers!!!
So here’s your essential guide to keeping nice and toasty on the river ; http://forum.ucdcanoeclub.com/index.php/topic,10222.0.html  (http://forum.ucdcanoeclub.com/index.php/topic,10222.0.html)

•   A pair of old shoes! (Or wet booties if you have them)

•   Towel and warm, dry clothes for afterwards!

•   Some hot stuff! Flasks of tea, soup, hot blackcurrant...they'll all be much appreciated on the bus home!!  And chocolate bars or cereal bars!!  Nothing better than some sugar after a fun day on the water (avoid things that aren't in wrappers though, cause you won’t want to wait to wash your hands before eating them!)


Sign-up closes as usual on THURSDAY at 9pm.
