May Hare and Hound

A very low turn out this month but not supprising for a bank holiday with next month race next weekend.

Sarah had an excellent race riding on my wake then out paddelling me in the last 50m setting a new PB in her very nice borrowed boat. John Smith back from his DW exploits held Andrew of to finish first.

Being a bank Holiday there was a lot more cannal trafic causing most paddelers to waite at bridges. Sorry to mike both myself and Sarah cut him up at one bridge on the way back.

Owe and I had a good time too.

Macclesfield Mayor takes up the challenge



Macclesfield Mayor accepted the club's offer to have a go at canoeing. As part of the Mayors' Youth Zone Initiative, Cllr Norman Edwards came along to Bollington, to meet club members, and see how we encourage juniors into our sport.
He then joined Chris Cleaver in an open boat and later said he really enjoyed himself but hadn't expected it to be such hard work. How far did you make him paddle, Chris?
