Would you be interested in volunteering to help provide safety cover for this event? This is a great chance to practice your white water safety and rescue skills, so if you can help out throwlining for a few hours or would like to spend two full days live-baiting, we'd love to hear from you.

Providing White water safety and rescue cover for the BUCS slalom event

You can expect free tea, and if you can help for a whole day or more there's also free camping and party tickets. As always, you can take time out to compete yourself, so there's no reason you can't get stuck in!

The dates of the event are 13-14 February 2010, and there's loads of information about the event itself at http://www.bucsslalom.org.uk/

If you'd like to get involved, get in touch.

BUCS WWR 2009 – Roundup

chris — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 20:26:27 +0000

Big thanks to the boys and girls who came down to the Washburn for the 2009 BUCS WWR, organised by the Friends of Durham University Canoe Club. Once again the whole event was great fun, and Rockmonkey would like to thank everyone who donned their warm clothes and spent the weekend helping swimmers out of the water, and recovering gear for various clubs. We couldn't do this sort of event without the dedication and professionalism of these guys – big love to all from Monkey towers.

See you all at the BUCS Slalom next year…
