Hello to all in ISKA, I hope wherever you are in the country, or abroad, you are keeping well and building up that wish list of trips for when we can get out again.

This virus has unfortunately put a roadblock in the way of us all meeting up in Streamstown this weekend. As a way of keeping contact with the rest of the kayaking community Margaret has offered to run an online Quiz.

The Quiz will be on Zoom at 8.30pm this Saturday, 02/05/2020. All you need do for the moment is keep an eye on this forum for details of how to partake.

Sadly we will not be able to partake in the tepee fun or the entertainment and delicious food laid on by Peter, Dave and Martin, but at least we can come together for an hour or so of communal entertainment.

Keep an eye on this site for further details, see you all 'ish' on Saturday.

Great night. Thanks for all the hard work preparing the whole event.
Strange seeing the inside of your houses rather than your tents.
