We're in need of about 30 Kayak/Canoes or so altogether but am probably short about 5-10 at the moment - but any of your club members you could provide would be great.


They just need to be of 2 star standard and we'd be able to make a donation to the club for the guys who come along.


Sunday 1st August at Pennington Flash, Leigh.


It's a one wave (of 1,500 competitors) in water start but it's very early (05:30 ish) so my suggestion is that people camp over on the Saturday evening (arrive from 4pm) and we'll have something to eat and some beers!


We should be finished by 8.30am on Sunday so it is only a couple of hours.


We'll be based at the Leigh & Lowton Sailing Club (which is where we'll be camping too). Address: Leigh & Lowton Sailing Club, Green Lane off Sandy Lane, Lowton, Greater Manchester, WA3 1BQ


If you could ask your guys to complete our Registration/Next of Kin form that'll be great: https://www.swim-safety.co.uk/sec/index.php?code=imuk
