Blanchetown to Swan Reach

Christmas Race and Dinner

Saturday November 17th 2007

 

 Our very popular Christmas race will again be held at Swan Reach this year

Briefing:           11:30am

First start:        12:00 noon

 

 The distance is 29km, and PFDÕs must be  worn. Sufficient water must be carried, minimum of 1 litre per paddler, particularly important at this time of year.

 Entry fee of  $5.00  to be paid on the day.

The Legendary Sands of Time Trophy

Arguably Australian Canoeing's most sought after trophy, "The Sands of Time", will again be contested.  Leave your watch at home and be the closest to estimate your actual race time to win. 

After the race join us for Dinner at the Swan Reach Hotel. The hotel always welcomes the club. To enable us to plan this event we need to know an approximate number of participants. Please let us know if you are coming and if you will be joining us for the dinner.
