The Llandysul Div 2/3/Open double event is on 24 and 25 May. This is always a fun event and I hope many of you div 2 & 3 paddlers will be able to make it as it really is a good place to race and I are sure you will enjoy it.
For those of you who do not know Llandysul the course is a natural river running through a gorge providing good quality racing. There is a large clubhouse overlooking the river next to the start of the course and we will have lots of hot food and steaming tea and coffee (and cake and chocolate)
One of the great things about Llandysul is accommodation is so simple, the clubhouse has bunk rooms, bunks can be booked at 8 pounds per night (with light breakfast included). Alternatively camping is available across the road, still within walking distance of the start. This is 3 pounds per tent plus 1 pound per person per night. To book or if you have any questons please mail [email]Keithcanoe@onlineimages.ltd.uk.[/email] (Bear in mind rain at night in Wales is not that unlikely!)
Whilst we really welcome entries beforehand as it makes life easier, late entries will be accepted each day.
As well as the ranking events there is an open class if you are not div 2 or 3 and fancy a race.
We plan to have the course ready mid to late afternoon on the Friday so there will be plenty of time for free practice both Friday evening and Saturday morning.
Hope to see you there.

We are thinking of starting our very own Michelin awards for slalom food!!!
Though it was hot work at times in the kitchen, it was great to feed such a friendly and polite bunch of paddlers and families.
