Cheltenham Canoe Club is attending this years Teifi Tour.
CCC will be following the advice provided by Llandysul Paddlers and will therefore not be paddling Cenarth Falls.
Note from the Llandysul Paddlers Website - "Due to access problems at Cenarth Falls our shuttle buses and safety cover will be finishing at Newcastle Emlyn just upstream of the road bridge on river right."
Anyone from CCC who wishes to paddle Cenarth Falls will do so as individuals and cannot take part in the Teifi Tour.
If you have any issues please speak to me.
Adam (CCC Captain)
Pool sessions at Tewkesbury school start this Thursday, 13th October, at 7pm

Winter paddling season is nearly here, so it's time for another kit amnesty.
If you've borrowed some club kit and haven't got round to returning it yet, please do so asap (ideally before the Teifi Tour at the end of this month). Also, if you think you might have accidentally gained any kit, a quick check of your car/garage/shed/etc would be most appreciated!
thank you :)
