HELLO!

Medium Core Tour/ New Year Tour is a go! (yay I hear you cry!)

Here are some exciting things you should know about it:

• It will be in Wild Wales!
  
• Its from the 29th December to 2nd January this means...
  
• You will get to see in 2012 with style...or warwick canoe messiness (AWESOME)
  
• All this will be around £100 (tbc based on numbers)
• It will be a peer paddling trip!*

*As it is a peer paddling trip it does mean that you have to a fair bit of experience to go on this trip. However if you are unsure if you are eligible talk to an exec member or sign up anyway but be aware you may not be able to go on it. If this is the case then I can offer you the dates for the equally awesome if not more so for Scotland Tour which are 29th March to 6th April 2012!

Sign up will be going up Midday Tomorrow!

Hello good canoe folk,

You are all cordially invited to join us at the union event known as "POP" next week on Wednesday 30th November at 7pm for the consumption of tea (or other beverages). All guests are to come dressed as residents of Wonderland; those not appropriately dressed or arriving late are likely to be beheaded by her majesty the Queen of Hearts. In order to gain entrance you will need to have purchased for yourself one of these tickets: http://www.warwicksu.com/ents/event/7723/ Those who do not buy a ticket marked "Circling" may only be able to join us for Croquet afterwards.

See you down the rabbit hole,

The Mad Hatter and the March Hare

Hi all, This is aimed mainly at 1st years/people that are new to canoe polo. Now that youve had time to get yourselves used to balancing in a boat while holding a ball, you may have started to wonder a bit about whats going on in the game and what the referees blowing their whistle for So there will be a rules presentation next Tuesday (22nd November) before the pool session 6-7pm in the Ramphel Building room R3.25. Itll be a great opportunity to gain a better understanding of the game and how it works (and what fouls to avoid committing). Jess (secretary) Also, if you have a look at our website, you'll see that there's a rules page here http://www.warwickcanoe.co.uk/site/polorules/

Ladies and Gents, This Thursday we'll be going to Wing Wah to gorge ourself on delicious Chinesey goodness and then sing the night away at Karaoke. For those who have never been before, Wing Wah is a huge Chinese eat all you can on the outskirts of Coventry with lots of good food cooked in front of your eyes and the chance for those of you who consider yourself the next Freddie Mercury to dazzle us with your vocal talent. They also have a Chocolate fountain. Sold? Meet us at the restaurant (http://tinyurl.com/cmoqmac) at 7:30 on Thursday. You can walk there from campus in around 30-40 minutes or take the 12 bus towards Coventry and get off near Sainsburys for a 5 minute walk. Bring £12 for the buffet, money for drinks and your best singing voice. See you there! Nunder and Chicky

So, it appears that everyone survived last nights fireworks with one rather unfortunate tree the only casualty.

Of course this means you\'re now all around for this weeks social at pop (death is of course the only valid excuse for non-attendance). This week our theme is circus: an apt description for this club I think. Be there on Wednesday at 7 in fancy dress and don\'t forget to buy your tickets in advance to avoid disappointment.

See you there!

Evening Munchkins!!!

I have a very important question for y'all! Would you like to spice up your xmas break with a bit of paddling? Well if the answer is yes, then reply to this email or post on the forum to express your interest!

Generally the canoe club goes on a hard-core tour over New Years and then the AWESOME Scotland tour over Easter (Details of which will come later). Last year there was lack of demand which makes tour sec's sad. So this year we are proposing a medium-core tour probably over new years for an uncertain number of days, somewhere in wild Wales. This means you have the opportunity to decide what you want. Yayyyyy!!!

If you are unsure whether you would be good enough for such a trip, ask an exec member or just express your interest and we can let you know!

Disclaimer: this is not signing up or commiting for the trip just expressing interest that you might like to go if there was one.

Hey lovely canoe/polo people.

I hope you're all thrilled about Tyne tour. If you're not going however don't worry, you're still going to have an awesome week. Because this week is the week of canoe club fireworks!

This year we are being hosted by our very own president Alice and her erstwhile treasurer Greg at their house in Canley. So, meet us on campus outside the sports centre at 7pm on Thursday and we'll walk over together, starting the fireworks at around 7:30. Anyone arriving late who needs directions or just feels a little lonely can as ever call me on oh7903195oh41.

As a contribution to the fantastic display we'll be putting on we ask that you all bring £5. And don't forget to bring some beverages (tesco is right across the road though). Afterwards we'll probably take a bus over to Leamington and continue the night in the one and only Kelseys. See you all Thursday!

Love,

Your social sex
