Events
Cardboard Boat Race ~ Saturday 18th July
June 24th, 2009 (Phil)
Please pre-register your team so I can get an idea of numbers.
It’s time for Wokingham Canoe Club annual Cardboard Boat Race. It’s a challenge for all the family where you have to design, construct and race a boat made of cardboard. Come along and see if your ideas will float.
Starting at10 o’clock, teams have two hours in which to build a one man craft using the provided heap of empty cardboard boxes and other rationed items.
The craft are then taken to the water for a race of both endurance and speed and the paddler who spends the longest time dry wins.
Treasure Hunt ~ Sunday 20th September
June 24th, 2009 (Phil)
Saturday the 19th is ‘talk like a pirate day’ so here we go:
There be booty about the centre if ya can find it, join a posse of pirates to head out and find the hidden gold chocolate bullion.
Okay, enough of that, join us at the Wokingham Waterside Centre for our annual Treasure Hunt, travel the Thames and find the clues to lead you to the hidden treasure.
Spooky Paddle ~ 25th October 2009
June 24th, 2009 (Phil)
Halloween is getting close so let’s have a night time paddle up the River Styx Thames.
This will be a centre based paddle and we are planning to start at 4 o’clock in time to see the sun sink away and the night draw in. Return to the centre for a cauldron of eye of newt soup (only joking it’ll just be plain old vegetable).
As this is a night time paddle all boats need to be lit, so try your best to do this in a spooky way. There will be a prize for the best fancy dress and carved pumpkin.
The river tolls will be 50p for Juniors and £1 for adults, Warning: fines will be issued for mundane dress.
