SUMMARY:Ballachulish BONANZA! - Volunteers Needed!
DESCRIPTION:Following in the tradition of the longstanding Loch Awe Village Hall weekends\, we have booked Ballachulish Village Hall for a combined River and Sea weekend. \nThis trip is in need of organisers and leaders! \nTo help organise and co-ordinate the weekend please contact June – 07740 531632. \nLeaders\, or to sign-up for the weekend please contact Misha – 07787 572447\nThe location offers great options for river and sea trips\, so there’s plenty of paddling on offer. \nAccommodation is in the hall\, so no tents are required\, but you’ll need to bring something to sleep on and under.  \nThe village hall has a small kitchen – breakfast and dinner on the Saturday are normally communal affairs \nCome along and celebrate the end of a (hopefully) great summer of paddling on a trip that has something for everyone!

SUMMARY:SpeyBAY BONANZA! [Ballachulish on tour]
DESCRIPTION:Following feedback from last year’s Bonanza we’ll go to an alternate venue every second year for the Ballachulish Bonanaza.  This year we go hunting for surf\, rapids and dolphins in the Speybay area\nThe location means there will be good options for both river\, sea and surf trips so there’s no excuse not to come and it should be a great chance to socialise whatever your paddling persuasion! \nWe’ll be staying in the hall so no tents are required but you’ll need to bring something to sleep on and under.  \nThe trip will be £30 per person to cover renting the hall\, plus a share of the grocery cost and usual fees for anyone needing to borrow kit. \nCome along and celebrate the end of a (hopefully) great summer of paddling on a trip that has something for everyone!
