Hi Guys & Girls
It's that time of year again. I am looking to put together a crack squad of rescue for Sluice and Lexlip Bridge.
If you are available and would like to help at either location please post below. We have been allocated 12 rescue so first come first served.
As per previous years Rescue will be provided with a T-Shirt and Race ticket.
Saturday the 13th September.
Race start 12.30
Rescue meeting @ Sluce for 12.00
Lorcan
yah put my name down.
lucy said she will do bank rescue.
thanks.
I'll do bank rescue too!
Yep I'd like to be elite... Or possibly just the party ticket. Fine you've sold me on the idea, I'm in...
I'll be shooting down at sluice or Lucan so I may be able to help out with the odd rescue as I'll be in the water anyways. Party ticket ;) ?
Count me in again for this year :)
Ill be there
Sure put me in as well and if you give me an extra party ticket I might even save u and sean when you's swim down sluice due to your huge canadian experience!
I'd like to do it.
I am available for rescue anywhere along the river.
Nuala, do u want to do the descent or the rescue...?
I'd like to try the rescue. Unless you are looking for someone more experienced.
Put me down for sluice. Cheers

I'm sorry, I actually can't make it after all.

Sorry lads
Ok guys so the Descent is on this saturday.
Below is the list of people who are doing rescue:
cian
riona
connor
kyle
jody
finn
joey
kieran
caoimhe
cli
and Killian running the show. If anybody else is interested or wants to drop out please let me or killian know asap.
Cian put me down for bank rescue....
Afraid I can't make it anymore either. Sorry guys
im sure ill be down there and will lend a hand but wont be goiing there primarily to do rescue!
Well between the hours of 1 and 4 there won't be much playing in the wave going on so bear that in mind.
Lucy, Cian has put you down for bank rescue.
Looks like im going to have to pull out of this too, have to go in to get my tattoo finished and was only time he could fit me in. Sorry lads! Joey
I'll be taking photo's at the descent so won't be on rescue.
I'll be at sluice to do rescue only, i'll be going early and hanging around after to play
Ouch-That tattoo sounded really sore joey! It's a pity there wasn't enough room to get your name all on one side, is he going to put the 'Y' on the other side?
Okay, thanks to everyone who's helping out.
We're meeting at Sluice at 12:15 to have a brief at 12:30 changed and ready. This gives time for a small amount of play and setting up before the first guys come through. Does anyone have a way of keeping a phone waterproof on the water? Let me know if so.
If you have a rope, please bring it along. Likewise for first aid, snacks, water, Coke etc.
Off the water again a little before 4.
Leixlip people on the water by 1. At 3:40, start cruising down to Sluice to meet up with me and we'll start sweeping. If you guys can have a phone on the water as well, all the better. Again, please let me know this afternoon if there's a phone carrier. The ICU will need the numbers of anyone carrying a phone on the water.
Thanks. Competitions for rescues include:
Hottie Count
Ugly Count
"Nobody rescue a Trinner" rules apply.
& don't forget to tell anyone you rescue what your name is... they'll hunt you down at the afterparty & buy you drinks :D
Hey Guys Hope ur all keeping well,
Sorry for late notice but I am up in Dublin this weekend from Galway, and thought I'd offer my services if you need extra rescue for the descent!
Killian/Lorcan do you have enough rescue? I sent you a txt let me know by txt on 0868296191.
I would need to borrow a boat who would i contact to get access to the shed or what time are people picking up boats sat morning?
Thanks,
Cormac.
Hey Killian try and get one of these: http://www.aquapac.net/ukstore/erol.html
You can order online but you wouldn't have it on time or you could go to a chandlery shop, I think theres 1 in Dun Laoighaire anyway also Bullock Harbour, there should be a few other in Dublin maybe even outdoorsey shops like GODs or I canoe or OAS
How did the awl rescue go today?
Here's a few pix of if from Lucan (http://blog.kyletunney.com/13/09/2008/liffey-descent-2008-photos/).
