Blue Moon Social Paddle
Late evening paddle to catch the full moon. Celebrate the August Blue Moon with a twilight paddle with friends. The sun sets at 7:59pm, moon rise is 8:20 pm.
Meet at 6:30pm (for 7:00pm launch).
We'll plan to be on the water 2 to 2 1/2 hrs, so we'll be getting back 9:00-9:30pm.
We will probably head out to the second dolphin, red bell or perhaps the yellow wave machine - depending on the weather conditions and the strength of the group. We will paddle together as a group.
You MUST bring a water proof light or headlamp
Feel free to gather on the beach for a social after cleaning and storing the equipment.
Make sure you have a key to re-enter the compound after 9 pm.
Note: This event is weather dependent. Watch the Kayak Slack Channel for last minute changes. We will cancel if there is heavy cloud cover or rain.
Guests & new members: NEW MEMBERS ARE WELCOME (provided you have kayaking experience)! Check with the Kayak Director to see if someone might be able to sign you out as a guest and that you have suitable skills to join the social paddle. You may also bring a guest who has kayak paddling experience (remember you are responsible for guests & equipment you sign out).
Please register for the event, and cancel if you can't make it so others know if they will have company. Please check others are registered before turning up, unless you're happy to paddle alone.
Weather permitting - we'll probably cancel if its raining, below 10C or winds higher than 20km/h. Please watch the #kayak channel on Club Locarno Slack for last minute changes.
If you'd like to sponsor a social kayak join the #kayak-social-paddle-leaders slack channel.
