Hi All

The Sunshine Coast Stand Up Paddle Club

The club is fully functioning now with a number of people assisting with the organization. The more the merrier who want to jump on board to assist the better.

We have our Club Day re-launch next Sunday on the 22nd of August at Maroochydore River Mouth. Please come along and invite anyone else who may be interested. It will be a casual surf contest for the first day. With a number of prizes.

Fitness Paddles

There is a group of people interested in fitness with SUP and for this reason we are keen for the club to be a meeting spot where by people can arrange to paddle together during the week. As the coast is a large area there are people in the south, middle and north. I know one group is starting with fitness at 5:30am on Tuesday and Thursday at Kawana Boat Ramp, another group is keen to start at the Maroochydore River and I guess there would be a number keen in Caloundra. This will all be discussed at the first club day.

Sunday Arvo Paddle

For a number of weeks now we have had a small group doing a Sunday Arvo distance paddle. Sometimes short 3km and sometimes much longer depending on the wind. If you are interested please check the forum on Seabreeze on Saturday arvo or Sunday lunch to find out where from to where to.


Cheers

It was dark when we started but a great way to start. Sue's session was a good one. We will be doing it again on Thursday at the same time. Meet at 5:15am and start at 5:30am at the boat ramp Kawana near Labalsa Park. It was good to meet a new paddler today.

Join in. The more the merrier. Hardest thing to do is get out of bed.

I would love to do the session at Maroochydore and will as work time allows.
