Hut Keys.
3/Jul/2002 The hut was broken into last weekend,
and the lock was smashed. We have fitted a new lock, but your
old key will no longer work. We have had new keys cut, so could
keyholders contact Penny to get their new one.
Friday
Evening Timetrials
Timetrials start on Friday 5 April 2002. For the first few weeks
they will take place at 6pm, then from 19 April onwards they
will be at 7pm. These times are ‘on the water’ so please allow
enough time beforehand to get kitted up.
Non members are welcome to bring their own boats and join in.
Timetrials consist of either one or two laps from Benarth slipway
to the marina and back, and take about 20 or 40 minutes for
an average paddler in a racing or fast touring style boat.
Tuesday Evenings
From Tuesday 2 April 2002 onwards at 7pm on the water. We aim
to hold a technique and fitness training session every Tuesday
for those who want it. Anyone not on the water by 7pm misses
the chance of joining in. They also miss the chance of being
escorted under the bridge by the training group - see the next
paragraph.
If You Don’t
Want To Train
Training is optional but recreational paddlers also need to
be on the water by 7pm so that they can form a group for safety
and sociability. The estuary through the harbour may not be
quite so scenic as upstream but it is still a very enjoyable
area to paddle.
New Paddlers
If you know anyone who wants to come down for the first time
please ask them to arrive at 6.30pm on a Tuesday and to let
us know beforehand. This way someone can meet them and explain
our set up before everyone else arrives.
Meeting Place
Scout hut at the right hand end of Morfa Bach car park (behind
Billingtons garage) or on the water by Benarth Road slipway.
