Reagional Paddlesports Weekend
March 21st, 2010
Over the weekend of 20th/21st March I helped run the regional paddlesports update weekend at Quorn, Leicestershire.
The weekend started with a key note address by Stuart Briggs from Canoe England before I formally launched the East Midlands Regional website (http://www.empaddlers.org). After an open discussion forum we all broke for lunch, which involved a bellboat taxi service to Colin’s pub!
In the afternoon the attendees split into several workshops. I led the Fundamentals workshop with Andy Oughton which was well received by all…hopefully they all learnt something!
On Sunday I assisted Andy running the unofficial 3* Coracle course at The Boat House pub in Barrow. It was a fun session which was enjoyed by all…even if we did manage to get Jenny wet!!
