Hi All

Just though people might be interested that Halifax CC at Sowerby Bridge are on Countryfile on Sunday (BBC1 20th Feb @ 7pm), with a mix of slalom and other paddlers on the river (and some mug from the club got interviewed).

Div 3's don't panic the water level when we filmed it last Monday was rather higher than we'd be able to run a slalom at - but a fun level!

If you can't wait till Sunday there are some photo's on the HxCC Website, or come and see the course for your self on 19/20 March for our Div 2/3 event.

7.00 on Sunday is our pool session. Thank goodness for iPlayer, I don't have to miss any of the Les Ford interview at all.
