This is sounding all to familiar.

The river level is high at the moment but failing
The weather forecast for the week is wet but nothing torrential.
At the moment we can still hold the event , the course would be moved 30 mtrs down stream so we would not use the top of the weir shoot.

But keep an eye on chatter and the main site in the unlikely event we have to cancel.

River levels are still falling so hopefully not too much rain in the next few days.
Looking forward to the racing at the w/e.

Keep an eye on this posting over the next few days for the latest update.
