Meet up at the Walls Regatta Club at 9.00am. Please phone Janet (01595 809718) if you are coming – even if you have your own kit. If you require club kit please let Janet know what you need.
As the weather is unpredictable, check this site, or phone two days before to check that the trip will go ahead.
Many thanks to Janet for arranging the trip.
Janet’s trying to arrange a trip out to Vaila followed by soup, sandwiches and cake at the Walls Regatta Club.
The original plan was 26th October, 14 people have signed up so far. Janet was wondering if either the 2nd or 9th of November might be better for people as she’d forgotten it was school holidays.
Please contact Janet on 01595 809718 if you’re interested in coming and specify which date suits you. We’ll go with majority and confirm on the website.
Many thanks!
A good turnout of club members attended the end of season meal at the Gurkha Kitchen on Thursday 3rd of October. Lots of really nice food was consumed, reminisces about the season and plans for next year discussed, and a generally relaxed and enjoyable evening was had. Many thanks to Wendy for organizing the Gurkha Kitchen.
That’s the end of Thursday nights beginners sessions for the year, role on 2014! Keep an eyes on the website for weekend trips, if the weather’s nice we may yet get out for another club trip or two!

Spectacular close to the canoe club 2013 Thursday evening outdoor sessions. A group of 10 set off from Bridge End at 7 o’clock for a ten mile paddle. As the photos show conditions were perfect for this event.
Setting off
In the dark
Paddling in the moonlight
Paddle through Scalloway Harbour at night
If weather conditions are suitable we will do a night-time paddle setting off from Bridge End, meeting there at 6.30pm.
Please note, this will be a moderate length of paddle.
Participants should take some form of lighting with them; glow-stick or waterproof torch.
Check the website on Wednesday night to see if the trip will be going ahead.
WEDNESDAY UPDATE – forecast looks reasonable (yes…honestly!) so we’ll see you at Bridge End as planned.
Despite the miserable weather, around a dozen kayakers were on the water at Bridge End honing their skills.
Well done to those who completed their two star awards.
Meet at Bridge End at 6pm (or as soon after as you can manage). No need to phone anyone about equipment.
