First Aid Course

Hi all, would anyone be interested in doing an REC First aid course on the 27th/28th February. This is a great opportunity to learn valuable first aid skills which could be vital on a river trip. It's a very worthwhile weekend and will make you extremely useful on future canoe trips. more details can be found here http://www.leamboatcentre.com/p/3386/REC-First-Aid---2-days#/images/product/prod_3386_131.jpg unfortunately this weekend does class with a Div3 regional polo event and a Warwick B's and ladies tournament and you would be unable to do both. Also the price stated in the website is £120 but as this course is run by Leam boat centre we will be able to subsidise this a bit. Very limited spaces available and we need to know if you're interested asap so if you are please comment below or email me on o.tarrant@warwick.ac.uk .

Swimming

SWIM TRAINING

Swim training as mentioned on facebook last week shall begin this week for those interested! 

Times for this week (18th-24th) are: Monday 3.15 - 4.30 ; and Thursday 2-3 (No wednesday because of Leam training).

All you will need is to turn up at the pool with costumes. You can bring goggles or other paraphernalia if you wish!

I have compiled my own training list as well as accepting several sets from the Surf Club!
These range in difficulty! Mine are somewhat more gentle, for people who wish to maintain a certain level of fitness, while the others look at muscle building and improving fitness!

All levels of swimming are welcome due to the range in sets! We can talk about what type of training people want to do when we're there, as well as organising ourselves into lanes!

So grab your goggles and I'll see you there!


p.s. due to monday times you can leave kit in the sports centre for canoe in the evening! And on thursday canoe is right afterwards anyway!

¡LASER QUEST! On Thursday Week 3 (28th Jan) we will be heading up to Cov for LASER QUEST! For only £6 (+ a bus ticket) you will get 3 action-packed games of shooting small children/ grumpy old canoe folk. Make sure you bring your student ID! We will also be eating at a nearby Harvester beforehand (and probably going the pub afterwards...) Interested? Signups are up now! You have until TUESDAY 19th MIDDAY. This is because I need to confirm numbers with them. At this point you will have to commit to paying your £6 (shock! horror!) unless you can find someone else to replace you. Date: Thursday 28 Jan Times: 6.00 @ campus bus stop, 6.45 @ cov skydome harvester, 8.00 @ cov lazer quest Signups: http://www.warwickcanoe.co.uk/site/trips/ CLOSE TUESDAY 19 AT MIDDAY Cost: £6 + bus ticket (+ food/booze) P.S.

Refreshers

Posted 9y 5mth ago by Some Old Git

:

Guys and Gals,

Been missing the excitement of a good canoe trip all holiday?? Fear not Refreshers is here!! Next weekend (22nd-24th January) we will be heading down to Dartmoor for a weekend of fun. You will not have needed to attend a trip before only to have been to a couple of pool sessions.

The trip will cost £40 including accomodation, kit and transport. There will be a group meal on Saturday night for which we will ask a contribution of £2. All you will need is a sleeping bag (the club have a few spares so if you need one let us know but that will be on a first come first serve basis), lots of warm clothing (non-cotton layers for on the river), some swimming kit, some shoes you dont mind getting wet and your beautiful selves. 

We will be meeting at 4pm on friday 22ndoutside the sports centre so if you cant make this time (going to be an hour late for example) then let us know. We will return late sunday night.

As per, once you have signed up you are commited to paying for the trip. If we cant find a replacement for you you will have to pay otherwise the club will be out of pocket. The sooner you let us know you cant go the more likely we are to be able to find a replacement.

Sign ups will go live on the trips part of the website http://www.warwickcanoe.co.uk/site/trips/ at 4:30pm this friday 15th January. I advise you are online at that time, this is usually a very popular trip.
