*This paddle will not take place if it is a cloudy sky.
You may howl at the moon if you like!!!
If you change your mind or are unable to make it for some reason, please let the Trip Leader know asap as this will affect number of canoes required, assigning partners, and so the rest of the group won’t have to wait for you unnecessarily.
Please note: Construction has started for the next 7 weeks at Weber and Albert Street and continues further on Weber Street near St. David’s school. The ONLY way to enter Dutton Drive is by turning off of Parkside on to Weber Street. The signs says ‘local traffic only! Albert and Weber Street is closed and you cannot drive either way on Weber Street ~ from King Street to Dutton Drive.
