This course is aimed at adults aged 18+ who want to learn kayaking and paddle skills in a relaxed, social and inclusive environment. Participants who complete this course will gain the Canoe Ireland Level 1 in Kayaking Skills certification.
Cost of registration is €50 but participants will be refunded €5 per session attended (Refunded amounts will be distributed via the same method of payment at the conclusion of the programme. These courses have extremely high demand so this is to encourage those who are lucky enough to get a place, to turn up the sessions) **
You do not need to be a strong swimmer to participate in this course but you should feel comfortable in water with a buoyancy aid.
As there will be limited changing facilities, please wear swimwear under clothing on arrival. Wetsuits are available to use but if you have your own you can use this. All other safety equipment will also be provided including buoyancy aids, helmets, paddles etc. Please ensure you bring old footwear to wear into water, a towel, a drink and sun cream if sunny.
Meeting point will be the Car Park beside the Mullingar Sailing Club. If there is a location change, you will be notified via the instructor or Westmeath Sports Partnership.
** We understand some sessions might be missed for legitimate reasons. This is no problem but please let WSP or the tutor know.
