You can sign up to join the Canoe Club at any of our pool sessions or e-mail Aoife
The boat house is very near the rugby pitch, backing onto Pearse St. It has 2 big black metal doors, see map.
We have our pool session on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, where you can practice the basics of how to get into a canoe, capsizing (in warm water!!) and then move onto learning to role and for more advanced paddlers - perfecting your hand role. Everyone is welcome from beginners right up to the experienced playboater or creeker.
We meet outside the boat house at 7:45, and its a short walk up to the nice new college pool. All you need to bring is swimming stuff (togs, towel, swim hat, lock for a locker). You need to be a member of the sports centre to get in
Hope to see you there soon.
Generally we go on a river trip each Sunday. Where we go is dependent on rain fall and the ability of the group.
If you're interested in coming along on a trip, email Clare (outings@dukc.net) (ideally before Wednesday of that week).
