Congratulations to Aoife, Maria, Margy and Niccy who successfully completed their Crew Helm course on Sunday. Julie Doyle IDBA Chair put them through their paces and was very impressed. Thanks to Margaret Mulcahy for all the tutoring in readiness for their practical exam and to everyone who came to paddle and support them. They will be a fabulous addition to the Plurabelle Paddlers Helming group.

What a day to welcome our friends from Suir Paddlers. Both clubs have teams travelling to the IBCPC Participatory festival in Aix-les-Bains next month and it was great to race together and enjoy that wonderful post training cuppa. Thank you ladies for travelling to train with us, we are looking forward to coming to you in Clonmel soon.

We were delighted to welcome Nikki Gallagher CEO of the Irish Cancer Society to our clubhouse on Saturday morning. She chatted to members on what survivorship looks like for some of us and was brave enough to try one of our paddle machines. Nikki was invited in by fellow ICS board member Maria Fleming who is herself a proud Plurabelle.
