Induction

We have reached full membership and there are no more inductions for this year - sorry!

The aim is to introduce new members to the club.
Specifically to learn about safety and how to use the club and equipment to its best. There is plenty of time to learn how to canoe once you are a member.
You will be a able to paddle as well. If you join you will get a copy of the clubs handbook that has all the information in it that you will learn during your induction.
