CANOE WALES ARE ORGANISING THE BIG ADVENTURE CANOE WEEK.
The week runs from 26th May – 3rd June. The Big Adventure was so popular last year that British Canoeing have decided to keep the same theme for 2018. You can learn more about the week at: http://www.gocanoeingweek.org.uk/organisers

On Tuesday, 29th May, there will be an unique opportunity to receive a comprehensive lesson in Kayaking from qualified instructors who run the Ponty Paddlers . We will be open from 10.30 to 3.00pm. There will be a small charge for the instruction. Follow the link below to see the basics of safe canoeing that will be taught:-
