Like several other events recently we have rather more water than usual for the time of year. At the moment we have the usual side gate open, and the middle gate fully open too!
However, at the moment I am hoping that we will still be able to run the event on 14/15 July - I think I have a plan for how to set up a course suitable for Div 3 & 4 paddlers (using the water at the sides of the main flow, and a bit further downstream than usual), provided the water doesn't get any higher!
The schedule is, as usual, the couse should be up sometime friday afternoon, first runs starting at 12 noon staturday & 11am sunday, free practice both days 'till the start of first runs.
We will take entries on saturday & sunday mornings, but advance entries would be really helpful (emails even as late as friday, & money on the day are fine), as it makes getting the start list sorted much easier!
Watch this space for updates on the water level......
