What a great event this will be, unfortunately Chester and I will be at Washburn Div 1 or we would have loved to have come to give support. Will still make a donation though.

Hi Mike,

Although i was not personally there last year,Chester and LWCC were very impressed with the event organisation and venue. We will be bringing all divisions to the weekend and will encourage helpers if work commitment allow. Looking forward to it already...

It worked well and stopped the normal bunching up and younger paddlers getting stressed jostling for some where to wait in the pool. I hope future events will also be run this way, it also ran to time (well goo...
