Post by: david on November 13, 2006, 11:34:34
On tuesday the 21st Simon Barry & The Real Jim Kennedy will be giving a safety talk for all club members. this talk will unravel a lot of the mysteries of wicklow by explaining the dangers and how to avoid them. It will also be lots of fun.

It will be in the Arts block (foom No. to be confirmerd) arting at half 7ish and there will be a stonking boat house party afterwards.
Also if there's time afterwards jim has promised to teach us a few computor hacking skills at, no extra cost.

Ps, Bring your own beer....

so i take it that we will be meeting at the yellow thing at half seven and going to a room from there.

this should be a good talk so anyone who can should come along. also as this is to be the first big club boat house party ie freshers and all, it will be great we might even be able to talk dearmaid into buying some http://club booze for it

No I don't see why money should be wasted; on getting people wasted. We have gear to buy and boats. It's a canoe club not a drinking club. The drinking committee should use its massive resources to buy some beer. Most people can afford to buy their own, €7.50 for six cans of dutch and €20 for coke and vodka. Score an oldie they have plenty of cash to get you drunk.

You don't have to pay for a drinks licence but you do have to pay for booze and no, sorry, not this time. It's a simple matter for people to buy it themselves and realistically the club could fork out on a bunch of crates and there'd still only be two or three sneakies per person. One way or another, the club will not be spending so much money that you can get drunk for free. So if you want to go boozing, you may as well buy your own.

Also, I vaguely recall some fuss from the fresher of the year night last year about how you have to have your drinks reception in this one particular room before moving on to another room for your presentation (or vice versa, or something weird like that). so it's messy whatever way it goes.

Boo the committee. I recall last year (or 'Year of Bliss' as it has become known) where we replaced most of the kit with shiny new gear (now in pieces mostly due to the paddling exploits of the current committee) AND got everyone fuck-faced for free on a regular basis with the most tremendous boathouse parties ever to be witnessed on campus. Oh, the fun we had with services...

Buy drink! The club has sufficient gear to get people to a level where they can buy their own gear.

Don't listen to Kieran. We don't need the money for gear and boats, we need it for hostels, buses, instructors, that sort of thing.

Of course, if you'd all like to pay €20 instead of €10 for the Saturday trips, I'm sure we can accommodate getting 2 or 3 warm beers for each of you. Any takers?

You right a canoe club doesn't need to replace paddles, bouancies or helemts every year.
