><> ><> RASHVESTS <>< <><
10 months ago we asked, can you get a rashvest for under £30?
Now, after over 60 emails, many machine breakdowns, numerous design edits they have arrived.
Complete with personalised initials (and stitching on the outside) the ordered rashvests can be collected from the sports centre balcony.
If you can't pay or collect due to being too old / far away. Please get in touch asap.
 
Thanks to Hannah and Ivan for actually doing the heavy lifting on this

IMPORTANT KIT NOTICES

Posted 6y 5mth ago by Some Old Git
Posted by: Lara

Hey Paddlers,

We've got some changes acomin'...

Kit Amnesty - We are being required to do a full kit inventory, and for this, we need the kit back. Please bring any club kit you have hanging around yours back by 10am tomorrow. Please do not take any kit home after tonight’s session. All kit MUST be returned. 

Kit Borrowing - After this Sunday (01/07/18) the new Kit Borrowing policy comes into force. If you are borrowing kit, you MUST fill in polo’s kit borrowing form on the website. Since this use is outside of club usage, maintenance charges will apply: £1 for a complete set of kit excluding a boat per training session it is used at, £3 for each training session a boat is used at, and £5 for each tournament the kit is used at (tournament cost covers both boat and kit). There is also a charge for each Warwick session that the kit/boat misses equal to that of a training session. 

Paddles - Have you noticed that your favourite paddles feel a little different? Well, that’s sort of my fault. We have renumbered the paddles! Also, listed on the left blade is the length and feather. I know this is going to be a bit annoying, but it should hopefully make things easier for you all going ahead â”œâ–‘┼©ÔäóÔÇÜ

See you tonight!

Polo Love

Garage cleanup and kit fixing 15th June

Posted 6y 5mth ago by Some Old Git
Posted by: Rowan

Hi paddlers,

The end of the year is nigh, which means the time has come for the annual garage clean up and kit fixing day!
This will involve tidying and cleaning the garage, taking an inventory of all the kit stored there and of course fixing stuff.
We'll be starting at 10am and will be continuing all day (barring lunch break), so the more people who turn up the better! Feel free to bring cake and biscuits along with you ;)
Hoping to see lots of you there,

Rowan

Sup paddlers,

So as you all know surf trip is coming up (sign up if you haven’t already!!) and to accompany the trip there is of course a coveted t-shirt to commemorate not only the weekend, but the whole year of kayaking. You don't even have to go to surf to get a t-shirt! Each T-shirt will be adorned with your very own personalised nickname, hand crafted by our outgoing members.

If you would like to get a T-shirt please select your size on the doodle (same supplier as last year):

T-shirts will cost around £11 (TBC)  which we will send you a payment link for once the order has been processed.

Canoe love,

Sup paddlers!

As the end of term is almost upon us I thought I would update you on the final socials of the year. So once those pesky exams (boo!) are out of the way join us as we celebrate another year in typical Canoe style;

WEEK 8 – SATURDAY – SKOOLDAYZ – We will be hitting up the Copper Rooms. We will need a Fresher’s kitchen to host prinks, starting hopefully straight after polo at 21:30. Contact me if you want to host!

WEEK 9 – WEDNESDAY – POP! – Instead of circling in the Copper Rooms we will be having a BBQ (weather dependant) and drinks beforehand, then its back to the Copper Rooms for the final time this year. Prepare yourself as Disco Dave blasts out the Warwick Anthem ‘Mr Brightside’. The theme is Summer!! 
You only need an 'event-only' ticket!!

WEEK 9 - SURF – Need I say more. Signup if you haven’t already.
https://warwickcanoe.uk/site/trips/

WEEK 10 – DATE TBC – EPIC PARTY – Warwick Canoe’s version of the Sports Ball. Join us for the final social of the year at Leamington Rugby Club where alcohol is aplenty. More information will be coming in the following weeks.

Canoe love
