Worcester Canoe Club is holding its annual Hasler marathon race on Sunday, 5th May. Click on the link for details.

The Club are sorry to hear of the passing of Bryan Harrison, who has  died after suffering a long illness.  He was the early member who introduced the club to Slalom & owned the canvas folding kayak in the stair well.   We will circulate further details when they are available.

Here is the List of Events from the Riversports Association for 2019, including rowing, racing and other events that affect us on the site.

This year’s Hasler race is Sunday 5 May, and the Worcester Ring is Sunday 30 June.

Hi.  Thanks to lots and lots of hard work by Sue Hawthorne and Simon Davies we are now able to vote on whether to incorporate the club – for it to become a limited company.

Please see the rationale for doing so, the Articles of Association and the Bye Laws.  These can still be amended and will be reviewed by a lawyer. Please note I am not intending to print  copies of these out for everyone for the AGM.

Regard,

Julian

Julian Harris
Chairman

The AGM is on Wednesday 5 December at 7.30pm.  Please see the Notice of 65th Annual General Meeting 2018 and AGM Minutes 2017.

We are shocked and saddened to hear that Alistair Collier is missing at sea.  He was taking part in a GB Outrigger Canoe Association race off the Dorset coast yesterday, and is still missing.  According to media reports, the search has resumed today, led by the Coastguard and involving RNLI lifeboats and the police.  Alistair is a valued member of the club and a keen paddler.

I don’t have any further information on the circumstances.  We can but hope he returns safely.  Our thoughts are with him, his family and friends.

Please DO NOT drill a hole in your new key card.  It will stop them working.

Club key holders should be aware that the rear entry door has changed and that their existing key will no longer work. New keys can be exchanged for old keys by contacting Fess – who will be at the Club on Sunday morning at 9am or Monday / Tuesday / Wednesday and Friday evenings from 5pm until 6pm.
