Title: Post AGM/Drumbeg Sesh River Trip
Post by: Worm on April 04, 2017, 10:16:42
Where: Bountiful Boyne
When: SUNDAY the 9th of April
The epic plan: I dunno tbh, new committee can deal with it ....

Please note everybody that the river trip is taking place on the Sunday.

Our AGM is taking place the night before, on Saturday the 8th and will, without a doubt to be an edge of the seat night of: suspense, sudden twists, turns, underdogs, emotions, tears and celebrations! ....
So basically, just our average sesh in Drumbeg

All the details can be found on our facebook event:

Even if you have gone all this year without setting paddle to a river, come along on Sunday! New committee have something EXTRA special planned for everyone :D (only they dont know what it is yet, or who they are, or what they signed up to ) .


Roll on, roll on the sketchy trailer and our illegal hitch!!!
Here's what to put on it:

Warm clothes!!!! ….you know the drill at this stage!!
(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 are great! Fleecy pyjamas are even better! Tights make a good layer, especially to pop over your fleecy layers before trying to put on a wetsuit (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!  (I mean does anyone really read this now .... )

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

•   A pair of old shoes! (Or wet booties if you have them). For this trip socks won’t work...the water is going to be low, so if you come out of the boat, you'll be stepping on rocks (which is not fun in socks!) If you don't have a pair, pop into your local Penneys or Tesco and pick up a pair of cheap shoes! (Honestly, fair play if you are still soldiering on and reading this ... Or you're a Fresher ..)

•   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 on Thursday.
Getcha name down for some hangover cures!


So, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for flicking to the end, and not reading any of my posts for the past year (Don't lie!)

Yours in finality,
Your NML

I'll be on the trip. I'll be driving from the boglands. Will there be a need for car lifts from the boathouse. I may need to drop to the northside to drop off a load of computers
