Scull-a-thon

Calling all scullers...

This weekend (weather permitting) there's a chance to join an expedition for experienced scullers/small boats up for adventure, and we're calling it a "scull-a-thon."

It involves sculling/rowing from the club to the Cygnet bungalow in Shepperton on Saturday - then staying the night - and coming back on Sunday.

It takes about four hours, and Gareth is arranging for the locks at Teddington, Molesey, and Sunbury to be opened so it should be a smooth run. All you require is stamina (and some snacks, and a few bottles of water!). There will be breaks at every lock.

The plan is to go with the flood tide on Saturday morning (so leave the club at 10am) and then come back on Sunday morning.

The reward is being welcomed at the bungalow with lashings of tea, hot showers, and then the pub in the evenings with the rest of the campers, before a decent nights kip!

If you think you might want to take part please email Gareth asap
