Winter Update 2008

Hi MWC members and friends

Winter is well underway, and can't be over soon enough if you ask me (Dinah, Club Secretary).

Pool sessions are going well this winter and it is nice to see many new faces, as well as the usual crew. If you haven't been out yet this winter, it's not too late to start. Memberships are $10 and drop ins are $10 as well. Or, $100 gets you a membership and the rest of the pool sessions- until the middle of May!

WAV paddling has been putting on some great clinics this winter. Why not sign up and work on your skills?
