Proposed Trips March/April 2007
26/3/07
Louise Parker and Mark Banham from Queenstown have asked me to post this newflash to the SSKN
Saturday 31st MArch/ 1st April
Weekend in Riverton
I have a friend with a batch, (only a small one) which we are considering renting for the weekend. The usual Riverton plan- playing in the surf, learning skills from each other, walking round the headland, reading a good book or paddling round the islands depending on the weather. Will be a fairly casual and un-timetabled weekend for anyone interested.
Easter - Stewart Island
Unlike some of the braver members of the club... we are planning to sit in our kayaks ON the ferry to Stewart island, moving our paddles around in the breeze and THEN report we paddled to Stewart Island. Once rested from the ferry trip, we plan to paddle and camp around the place. Mark is also planning on running the great walk over there if anyone is interested ( or even just wants to wait at the end and laugh). Again no specific plans other than being eaten by a couple of sand flys, eating blue cod and paddling around.
I would encourage members to join Louise and Mark on these kayaking weekends. Please contact Louise and Mark by email to [email protected] or to [email protected] or phoning home at 03-4411159
Safe kayaking
