***Freshers Trip***

Hey paddlers!

It’s been amazing to see so many new faces at our taster sessions so far and I hope to see more before the week is over!

I’m here to announce that from the 22nd to the 24th (weekend of week 3) we will be running our annual fresher trip to north Wales! We’ll depart Friday afternoon and return to campus late Sunday evening. This trip is designed for people of all abilities so it doesn’t matter if you’ve never been on moving water before or are a certified big deal :)

Signups open on our website this Thursday at 12:00. In order to sign up you need to make an account. It’s best to do this in advance as places go fast! https://warwickcanoe.uk/

You have to have been to at least one pool session before the trip so if you haven't done so sign up for one of our Monday or Wednesday canoe sessions via the warwick sport website. You also must have bought club membership by then which can be found at: https://www.warwicksu.com/societies-sports/sports-clubs/

The trip itself will cost £24, which includes transport, accommodation and kit. Once sign ups close your place will be confirmed by a member of the exec and you’ll be given further details of what you need to bring.

Remember spaces are limited so sign up fast!

(if you don’t get a space don’t worry we’ll be announcing another trip very soon)

Canoe Love, <3<3

><> ><> Week 1 - Curry Social <>< <><

Posted 4y 8mth ago by Dan Collier

We can’t think of a better way to kick of the year than to get a curry at one of the best curry houses in Leamington Spa - Millennium Balti. Our tables are booked for Thursday 7th October at 7 pm. You can check out the menu here: http://www.millenniumbaltionlinenow.co.uk/menu.aspx

Feel free to bring your own drinks to the restaurant (can be alcoholic) and they accept cards, although cash payments are quicker and easier.

We will be meeting at the bus interchange at 5:50 pm, keep an eye out for some of our exec in their canoe hoodies.

It’s a great way to meet everyone and it avoids a night of cooking and washing up!! We hope to see you there (and even stay afterward for our bi-elections at Kelsey’s)!

Please click going on the event below so that we know how many people to expect to make sure there is enough room for everyone:

Covid-19 Update for in-person events

Posted 4y 11mth ago by Dan Collier

Morning all,

With further increases in cases within the university and the local area, both clubs have made the decision that it is now compulsory for anyone wanting to attend an in-person event to have a negative lateral flow test within the last 24 hours before the event. So this is for anyone wanting to attend the BBQ tonight, surf, and epic party.

You can get a lateral flow test on campus or pick up a lateral flow test kit from your local pharmacy. The at-home test kit only takes 40 minutes to complete.

Also in light of this, we will be limiting capacity at epic party to 30 people to comply with government guidelines. There are still spaces available and the remaining spaces will be allocated on a first come first served basis, so please sign up on the website using the links below if you are planning on attending.

Alcohol ticket:

https://warwickcanoe.uk/trips/trip.php?trip_id=84

Non-alcohol ticket:

https://warwickcanoe.uk/trips/trip.php?trip_id=85

We will also be back on teams tomorrow evening at 7pm for an online social for those of you who cannot attend our in-person socials currently. The teams link is below:

Any questions or concerns please feel free to message an exec member.

Canolo love,

Dan and all the exec

><> ><> Kit fixing and social <>< <><

Posted 4y 11mth ago by James Hickmott

Ciao all,

This week we have an interesting social/session. On Sunday we will be meeting at the sports center for 3:00🕒, then we will be running a kit fixing session as well as an informal polo rules talk to get us all up to scratch😆!

Afterwards, we'll go to the pub🍻 until our regular pool session later that evening.

While this is available to canoe members as well, seeing as a few canoe boats 🛶 need some work as well, we strongly recommend polo members coming, especially if you're coming to BUCS🏀.

Anyway, I look forward to seeing many of you there, and I hope you all enjoy the rest of your week!

Canolo love,

James, and all the exec
