Pop! Week 4 SMURF-TIME
Wed 3rd Feb (week 4)
EASTER TOOOUURRRR!!!!!
Hello everyone!!
This is THE anticipated email about the OH SO WONDERFUL tour that will be occurring over Easter where we will be travelling yonder to the far hills of Scotland for 7 days of paddling extravanganza...
What exactly is it? This is the big tour of the year where we head up to Scotland for 7 days (+2 for travelling) spend the day time paddling and the evenings being jolly and merry.
WHEEENNNN is it?  We will be heading up on the 25th March and returning on the 2nd April. 
WHERE? We will be spending 3 days paddling in the Inverness area and 4 days in Fort William  - which gives us a good range of rivers.
....how much? It will be AROUND #150 for accommodation/travel. Food will be extra on top of that, but if we club together we can keep the cost low. 
Why should I go? 
- It's THE tour of the year. It will be great. Simple As.
- You gain a load of river experience so you can improve your skillz 
- It will be a flourishing with social time brilliance
- It's a great time to get to know people in the club perhaps a bit more than you would like or anticipate... If that s the case, almost certainly there will be some wonderful stories...
- It's in Scotland. That s a pretty cool point for me as a Southerner, the North is one unexplored place. And it counts as abroad.
- It only happens once a year and you re only at uni once in your life. MAKE THE MOST OF IT.
- (Though I do not wish to boost the 'anonymous' person s ego) As a club member says: If you re not sure, always err on the side of Fun .
So Sarah, HOW can I get involved in this wonderfully exciting sounding trip? I will be putting sign up on the site today at 12pm (if the site will let me...). If you re unsure about your capabilities etc, sign up anyway and we ll have a chat with you about it at a later point.
Sorry if I have been overly excitable and hyperbolic. It s a lot for tour to live up to, but the only way to see is if you COME :-)
Your Tour Sec,

Curry!!
Are you hungry? I am, the chip shop was closed on my way home :(!
So I have a solution to the problem, and it's called CURRY!!
£12 will get you papadoms, rice, naan, and 6 pots of curry to dip into as you fancy. (varying degrees of hotness and a veggie option will be available). Bring your own drinks. What a bargain!
So. This will be happening at Heart of India in Leamington on Thursday 28th Jan (week 3) at 7pm.
Most likely followed by Kelseys and Evolve.
Any questions just ask!

Refreshers Fair
Tomorrow in the atrium they are running a freshers fair which we have 2 stalls for. It is a similar format to Freshers sports fair from the start of the year to attract new members to the clubs.
Unfortunately I and a lot of other exec members are busy for a lot of the day so we're looking for volunteers to man the stalls and sell the club to people looking to take up a new sport in the new year.
Where?: The Atrium (Downstairs open bit of the new SU)
When?: 09:30 - 17:30 (We'll probably leave early to dash of for Refresher's trip)
What to bring?: Yourself, a laptop if you have one as there are no power points available and we'd like to have a few videos on for people to watch. (Obviously the laptop will be your responsibility so keep an eye on it)
I'll be there a bit at 09:30 to get set up but am dashing off pronto. Then I'll be back at 15:00.
