Busy Weekend 15th - 18th May

A reminder to all members that the club are running their Hasler Marathon Race on 18th May. If you're not racing, there are jobs you can help with or come and cheer our paddlers on.

Meanwhile our thoughts are with NKC's top sprint paddlers, as 3 of them are representing Britain at the the European Championships in Milan. Tim Brabants, the current 1000 metre World Champion, is doing Mens K1 500 & 1000 metres. Lucy Wainwright is doing Womens K1 200 & 500 metres and Hayleigh Mason Womens K2 200 metres & K4 500 metres. In addition to this, Rosy Gray, one of our club Life Members, is acting as an official at the championships. Full team details here http://www.marathon-canoeing.org.uk/newsletter.asp

Congratulations to Harriet Farish for her 4th place, only 6 seconds down on the winner at last weekend's GB marathon assessment race in Chester. Richard Golder was 8th in the Men's K1. Full results here http://chestercanoeclub.org.uk/chester_1_ass_08.htm
