Attention fellow paddlers! We have set a date for this years race. As there are various other important events going on around that time of year such as the Great North Swim and the Olympic torch relay we decided to go with Saturday June 16th (so pop it in your diary!) We will soon be publishing the finer details for the race.

Thanks

Nic @ WCK

Despite the Lake District’s typical weather, this years Windermere Summer Solstice Lake Race was a success. The day started with calm waters and bright sunshine which eventually developed in to strong winds and rain……lovely! The aim of the game was to paddle either the long course of 10.5 miles or the standard course of 5.5 miles. Firstly we would like to thank everyone who took part in this year’s race. Well done for fighting against the weather and coming across the finish line looking tired but happy.

We would also like to thank the 3 Dragon Boat teams for taking part in the race and we look forward to seeing more of you next year.
