Another awesome night on the creek for those who made it last night! Glassy conditions with a strong incoming tide made the paddle up the creek easy, but the run back into the current was challenging, especially for the less experienced paddlers unaccustomed to reading the tides/current and knowing how best to avoid the worst areas on the water.
Great to see 30 paddlers, about half of which this was their first round!
Results of the kids paddles (approx 100-150m with the tide).
Run #1
1st Zane Banks (6) 1m 32s
2nd Ajay Pease (8) 1m 48s
3rd Casey Roots (8) 1m 49s
4th Maddison Pease (6) 2m 34s
Run #2 was super close between the 3 boys, and great to see a couple of them improving on the second run even though they were worn out.
1st Casey Roots (8) 1m 33s
2nd Zane Banks (6) 1m 36s
3rd Ajay Pease (8) 1m 38s
