SURREY SCOUT WATER ACTIVITIES CLUB
 
Hi ,
 
If the following is not of interest to you, but you know someone who may be interested, please forward this email.
 
An update on some Sping events.
 
But before that, over the Winter we have had two weekends on the River Dart in Dartmoor, one weekend on the Trywern and Dee, and some local day trips, including an enjoyable Boxing Day on the Wey navigation. Thank you for the effort put in by the organisers of those events. The regular visit to South Wales on the River Usk, usually organised by Richard Hunt, had to be dropped from the programme, as Richard no longer has the time. Many thanks to Richard for the many years that he organised it.
 
I have attached invites to:
A local day trip from our Godalming Centre,
two day trips on the River Mole,
an invite to a combined Discover/Explore course,
and following a planning meeting, our revised programme.
 
Can I please remind you of help needed for:
the Fun Day on the 12th May,
the Discover/Explore weekend on the 18th/19th May,
and the Surrey Scoutabout sessions on the Ardingly reservoir on the 29th-30th June,
when I am also looking for SUPs, kayaks and open canoes to be loaned.
Many thanks for the offers made so far, and they have all been noted.
 
Lastly, a reminder. The stretch of water that the club Centre lays alongside is now listed as Class C. For introductory sessions this does away with the need for Permit holders there, though there are other requirements, which can be provided on request. So if you want to get your members on the water in kayaks, canoes or on SUPs this Spring and Summer, it couldn't be easier.
