**Dartmoor Trip**

Morning fellow gnar shredders,

We had an interesting Freshers trip this weekend, but if you missed out then don’t worry as we have another trip going on this term: Dartmoor (Wk5)!

On the 1-3 November (weekend of Week 5) we will be heading down to Dartmoor to paddle the River Dart. If you have no idea what this river is about take a look at this schmexy video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xr01ODrOyM&t=78

The river is suitable for paddlers of any ability, with the only requirement being that you have been to at least one of our pool sessions prior to the trip (Mon & Wed 20:30 – 22:00). The trip will cost £42 and signups will go live this Thursday at 12:00 (noon). Sign up at warwickcanoe.uk/site/trips.

We look forward to seeing everyone who is coming to Kit & Cocktails this Thursday, where we will be meeting at the bus interchange on Campus 7pm to head straight to the Leam Boat Centre. Don’t forget to sign up for cocktails or mocktails on warwickcanoe.uk/site/trips in advance!

Feel like you don’t know what you’re doing in sessions? Want to know what the  funny signals the ref makes mean? Want to stop asking so many questions? (me too)

Come to the Canoe Polo Rules talk! The main rules talk for the year will be happening on Tuesday at 19:00 in L4!

Featuring! Rules! Cards! Signals! Kahoots!

Come along to learn the rules, and you’ll learn more about the game at the same time too. This will be important in sessions as, from Tuesday, we will be reffing to the complete set of rules.

Returners, are of course also welcome too, as it will be a great refresher of the rules and obviously will include the updated 2019 ruleset.

Love, your friendly, neighbourhood coach, Lara

P.S. If you have any questions, or can’t make Tuesday, feel free to message me any time :)

Hey Everyone!

At the end of week 3 (18th-20th Oct) we’ll be heading to Llangollen in N Wales for a weekend of introductory white water paddling, this is a great way to experience what our club is really about and try something completely new.

The trip will cost £29.10 and covers transport, kit and accommodation for the whole weekend.

Sup paddlers!

It’s been so good to see all the new faces at our taster sessions so far. There’s still another week of completely free sessions so come on down when you can!

But now it's time to start introducing you to moving water! Next weekend, 18th – 20th October (end of week 3), we will be heading to North Wales for two days of brilliant paddling, departing on Friday evening. It promises to be a great weekend and is a fantastic place to start your whitewater journey. Don’t worry if you’ve never paddled outside before, this trip is geared towards beginners! 

Signups open this Thursday at 12:00 so make sure you head over to warwickcanoe.uk/site/trips to sign up. It’s best to have made your account in advance as places go fast!

Remember you have to have come along to at least one pool session, though we recommend coming to more before yougo. The trip itself will cost £29.10, which includes everything you need for the weekend except your food and off-river clothing. You also must have bought club membership by then which can be found at: https://www.warwicksu.com/societies-sports/sports-clubs/.
