December - Tuesday 20 December - the last LCC Mid-wk sea kayak trip this year - thank you all for your good company
I am happy to co-ordinate and lead the trip for 5 paddlers and more if I have another leader. However, as we will be a team, we are jointly responsible for one another’s safety on the water.
Please ensure you carry the correct kit for the trip – plenty of food and drink to share.
