Semester one saw everyone get a big shock of how busy we were going to be for the next year and therefore we have posted less on the site - sorry

But heres a round up of whats been going on;

A trip to Tees Barrage,

We got up to some creeking as well;

So the plan for next year is a clean up of the River Caldew, Get in and out, clear a tree thats in the second drops way, take some pictures of each rapid for a guide on ukrgb.co.uk as well as here and hopefully put together a video guide as well. We have started planning for the National Student Rodeo in March as well, next semester should hopefully prove easier to keep this updated.

I'll see you at the Caldew in January -

Hey first blog entry, suppose I should introduce the club - All of the students at the Newton Rigg Campus of the University of Cumbria have the chance to join the paddling club. A lot of us are outdoor students studying for a degree, most of us having coaching qualifications and loads of free time to go paddling.

We are due to have a whole load of freshers within the next few weeks, we have taster days, BUCS competitions, a trip to Scotland and within the year trips away to as far away places as Uganda, Morocco and many hours of playing on local rivers in the Lake district.

We go to all sorts of events like NSR, all of us love a party and can't get enough paddling in, contact us if you want to go paddling or if your going to any events and would like someone you know there.

I'll keep posting to keep everyone interested!!!
