SUMMARY:Mon 1 Jul 2024 Summer Training - including 'Paddle Safer' course
DESCRIPTION:Alongside social paddling for existing members\, this week offers an opportunity to complete the Paddle Safer course\, which is designed for anyone relatively inexperienced to paddling\, wanting to gain knowledge and raise their awareness of paddling safely in a sheltered water environment – and an opportunity for our more experienced paddlers to practise and update their sheltered-water rescues under the watchful eye of coaches. It looks like being a mild (rather than hot!) evening\, so come dressed appropriately for getting wet!! As usual\, please book website ‘tickets’ and / or RSVP by 9pm Sun 30th. \n\n\n\nPS as we’re trying hard to raise funds to purchase new equipment – and are only just covering our annual running costs as things stand – we’d welcome your ‘optional donations’ at each event: you can ‘buy’ one or more £5 donations! \n\n\n\nLogistical details as Mon 10 Jun 2024 Summer Training – including ‘Learn to Paddle’ course.

SUMMARY:Mon 8 Jul 2024 Summer Training - including 'Learn to Paddle' course
DESCRIPTION:Alongside the first week of our 3-week ‘Learn to Paddle’ July course (which also includes the ‘easier’ trip on Sun 28 July)\, this week offers the opportunity for personal coaching (limited numbers) and social paddling for existing members – please book website ‘tickets’ and / or RSVP in the usual way by 9pm Sun 7th. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue\n\n\n\nBrecon Promenade – meet by the Club’s store adjacent to the toilet block in the ‘upper’ car park (https://what3words.com/tigers.loitering.bandage) – NOT in the car park next to the river / boathouse (although some of us might end up operating from there). \n\n\n\nTimes\n\n\n\nMeet at 6.30pm\, ready in your paddling clothes. We want to have everyone kitted-up and getting on the water by 7pm\, so late arrival has quite a disruptive effect! \n\n\n\nWe’ll aim to be getting off the water by 9pm\, before it gets dark. \n\n\n\nParents or other adults must be available at the start and end of the session to help under-18s with kit and to carry boats; and throughout the session in case they need to get off the water early. \n\n\n\nFacilities\n\n\n\nThere are no indoor changing facilities on site\, so it’s a case of changing in the car park. Toilets may be open but only until 7pm – they cost 20p to get in. \n\n\n\nCost\n\n\n\n\nNo cost for ‘social paddlers’ bringing their own boat & kit (although donations welcomed to help us cover costs)\n\n\n\n£10 for personal coaching; £5-10 to hire club boat & kit\n\n\n\nAll existing Club members must also have up-to-date membership of both the Club and Canoe Wales – we’ll send separate reminders for those of you who need these! Any new members will need to join formally after their first three sessions.\n\n\n\n\nEquipment and Clothing\n\n\n\n\nWe’ll provide boats\, paddles\, buoyancy aids\, helmets and spray-decks for those who need them – but if you have your own\, please bring them along\n\n\n\nAlthough deliberate immersion isn’t always part of the plan (and even when it is\, it’s usually towards the end of the session) there’s always a chance of accidental capsize\, so kit should take account of this (and the general weather conditions).\n\n\n\nAt the very least\, wear clothing layers of the type you might wear to go walking – ideally synthetic materials that stay warm and don’t get too heavy when wet. Most people wear swimwear underneath. And a waterproof jacket (to keep off the rain and wind\, rather than keep you dry if you capsize!) – we do have a limited number of canoeing cagoules\, but not enough of the right sizes for everyone.\n\n\n\nFootwear that you don’t mind getting wet\, not too large (chunky trainers don’t fit well in kayaks; neoprene wet-shoes are ideal; sandals or crocs no good as they fall off!).\n\n\n\nIf you want to be assured of staying warmer if you fall in\, a wetsuit is the next step. Ones made specifically for paddling are called Long Johns (or Long Janes) and don’t have sleeves\, for maximum mobility (worn with e.g. rash vest beneath and/or fleece above). But a standard surfing-type ‘full’ wetsuit is also fine as a starter. Again\, we do have a very limited number of wetsuits\, which you’re welcome to check-out on the first evening in case we have one that fits you…\n\n\n\nDon’t forget a towel and complete change of clothes for the end of the session\, in case you do fall in!!
