SURREY SCOUT WATER ACTIVITIES CLUB
River Wye Canoe Trip 18 -20th October 2019
 
Hi ,
 
If the events advertised here are not of interest to you, but you know someone who may be interested, please forward this email. Hopefully there is something in 2019 or 2020 that means we get to see you on the water.
 
SSWAC are arranging a canoe camping trip in the Wye valley.
 
The plan is to travel to Biblins youth campsite on Friday 18th October. On Saturday morning we would drive to Ross-on-Wye, and then paddle back down to Biblins, camp overnight, and then paddle to Brockweir on Sunday, before travelling home.
 
Participants will need to be able to paddle 12miles per day and will need to cater for themselves for the weekend. Scouts will need to be accompanied by a leader who do not necessarily need to paddle with the group. SSWAC coaches & Permit holders will supervise Scouts on the water.

Travel:
All those attending will need to make their own arrangements to travel to and from the activity. We will try to assist with car sharing.
Camping:
Participants will need to bring their own camping equipment suitably packed for a river trip. The camp is being held in mid October when weather may be unpredictable, warm or cold. A minimum kit list will be provided.
Craft:
Canoes and paddling equipment will be available for hire from SSWAC.
 
Costs
The cost for the trip is £25 per head. This is to cover cost of the shuttle for the drivers, parking and camp fees.

Interested!
