Orton Mere Slalom in Peterborough

Post by Slapdash Sal » Tue Apr 25, 2017 9:05 pm

Looking forward to the Div 3 and Div 4 slalom races at Orton Mere in Peterborough on May 6th and 7th.
A friendly slalom where families can camp alongside the river and enjoy the weekend.
Families can set themselves up on the riverbank and watch everything from one place.
We have boats if you want to borrow.
Email sal.atkinson1@peterborough.gov.uk if you want more information.
Hope to see you there.

Just a quick line.

Because 90% of our entries are on the day we never know the size of our entry, so timings for the weekend will be roughly as follows.
The course will be up by late Friday afternoon for free practice.
Saturday;
Free practice till 09:30
Organised practice till 12:00 when the event will start and if previous years are anything to go by everything will be over by 18:00
Sunday everything will start an hour earlier.

The water levels are safe and good for div 3 / 4 event.
