The first event will happen on 7-8th May 2005 . The Saturday’s will be spent looking at developing your skills as a paddler with the Sunday’s devoted to fun competitions – down river boater-X, extreme slalom and freestyle competitions on different river features etc. Coaching for these events will be free to access, the only cost being the daily facility fee of £ 7.00.
