We are supporting the second Ancholme River Festival in Brigg Market Place. Here is what we are doing on the day:
Ergo Challenge!
Race each other on the big screen on our new Kayak Ergometers, over a set distance, in our gazebo in the Market place.
There are prizes for the general public for fastest male and female adult, junior and under 12’s. This is open to everyone to have a go, including club members, but please note that GSCC members and Brigg Bomber competitors are excluded from winning a prize! (unless we can get more prize donations! Can anyone donate prize, either privately or from your employer? If so, please conatct Pete Keel at building@gscc-online.com).
Go Canoeing Try-it session!
May 23rd-31st is National Go Canoeing week and we are running free sessions to encourage people of all ages and abilities to pick up a paddle and get out on the water!
These sessions, at 1:30 pm and 2:45 pm, are for the public, including family and friends of our club members! Booking not required, but please register at our stand on the day.
Slalom Challenge!
We will have a slalom course set up near Country Bridge and are running a demonstration event for the public. This event is open only to all GSCC members, regardless of experience, and will take place early afternoon. Members must enter beforehand if they wish to compete.
