??? Whats your favourite poster? Vote Here
The The Top Ten Posters 2011 (Thanks to Nick P, for Organising this)
All posters can be seen at Canoe Slalom UK - Poster Page
I had great difficulty narrowing it down to the best 10 (but they are in order of the thumbnails on the webpage - maximum of 1 poster per Club or Organisation).
If you really think I messed up in my choices, post below, and if enough people 'post' vote for it, it can be include it in a top 3 'show down'.
Otherwise, please vote for your favourite of these 10.
(I'm not sure if there will be any prizes?? But our sport relies on the Volunteers who run and contribute their time and effort, and good publicity and marketing, for our fantastic sport has to be a great thing to celebrate.) VOTE NOW
PS You can only vote once.

Why isn't the Howsham Weir poster in the list? Would definitely get my vote.
The above is the personal opinion of Mark Shaw and does not reflect the views of either the BCU or England Slalom Committees.

Hi
DJ; I'm guessing that's supposed to say 'not' as apposed to 'note' - I deliberated for quite some time; as the poll only allows 10 entry's.
Mark; Howsham Weir, was an early contender, (i personally like the swoosh border, and picture, and it had made it onto my first list, but as the amount of writing over the picture makes it difficult to read and difficult to see the picture, i chose not to include it. (Harsh and high standards, but that's all credit to all the people that make posters)
However, I stand by the comments above; a swell of 'posted votes' and I would happily count them to remove any wrong doing on my part. :;):

Did someone offer a prize for the best?
I'm Spartacus !
Yes, I'll stand by that [£50]. It wasn't a random idea; I appreciate the importance of eye-catching, but informative posters because it's part of my job, sort of. These could do a good job if placed at key sites [schools, sports centres] local to the race to at least attract spectators, if not future competitors.
I can understand that some may think the choice of the top ten may be unfair, but at least someone has had a go, so lets stick with it.

I'm Spartacus
Apologies and somewhat predictably (I waited for someone to jump in but couldn't wait anymore)
I ain't got £50 though so maybe I ain't
