Record numbers take part in kayaking in Romsey

12 Scouts recently completed their Scout Paddlesport Badge by gaining the BCU Paddlepower Passport Award.  5 more went one step further and completed the BCU Paddlepower Discover Award. And a further 2 have been progressing further.


Today (Sunday 6th) we had the largest turnout ever for a river trip with 20 members paddling (in two groups) from Swanwick to Botley on the River Hamble 


We have also provided canoeing sessions for Tomahawk Explorer Unit ; 21st Romsey Scouts; 3rd Romsey Scouts and Romsey Pirates Network



One of the parents commented on how wonderful a time the Scouts had and how grateful they are to the instructors, Ann, Mark, Brevan and Robin and Ann’s husband Pete who organises everything, for giving up so much of their time to share their enthusiasm for kayaking with the next generation.
