Weekend trip to Dartmoor

Trip to North Devon to paddle the River Dart and perhaps other rivers. You will need at least one white water trip under your belt for this, e.g. Mile End Mill or Barle and Exe – ask if you’re not sure. As with any trip, paddling is dependent on water levels. If levels are too high or too low paddling options might be limited or non-existent for some or all of the group. But this is Dartmoor so the walking is great too.

Places will go fast so please send an email to [email protected] with the info below and send a non-refundable cheque for £65 payable to Regents Canoe Club to Mark Donaldson, 36 Park Road, London, N8 8TD (or you can provide me with this information in person after the time of issue of the newsletter).

Places will be allocated on a first to express interest (and provide all the information below) basis with the caveat of ensuring there are appropriate experience levels for the group. Your place will be confirmed by return email on receipt of your cheque.

Please include in the email a response to ALL of the following:

1.    Previous experience?
2.    Willing to lead or support a group for one or both days?
3.    Willing to coach or support a coach for one or both days?
4.    Willing to drive? Have a car? and if so, how many people/boats can you take?
5.    Will you be hiring a boat from the club?
6.    Where would you want to be picked up Friday and what time?
7.    Where would you want to be dropped off on the Sunday
8.    Any specific food requirements?

We will be staying in the Dartmoor Training Centre: http://www.dartmoorcentres.co.uk/centres.html

The cost includes accommodation for Friday and Saturday, breakfast, lunch and river snacks for Sat/Sun, and Saturday night meal.
