Thanks to Karen & Casey for your input, it’s good to remind us retired old gits how difficult it can be juggling busy and demanding careers with family commitments and then finding time for hobbies.
I share Ken’s opinion that we could run additional trips to cater for all our aspiring paddlers. We would need to make sure we have enough help on hand to provide safety cover but in the past our experienced paddlers have been brilliant in their support of our trainees, we just need to manage this. Ken has spoken to me tonight and we are going to try running 2 trips this Sunday. Keep and eye on the forum for details later in the week.
I also share Buck’s view on mid-week beginners trips. Being a retired old git I am equally happy to these, but again would need support from experienced paddlers to achieve suitable levels of safety.
Bring it on I say.
