Members of the new Carrick Paddlers Club have enjoyed a number of outings on the River Suir this month and are planning another one this Thursday, July 27.
The club hosted its first outing for members on the river on Thursday, July 13. It was a training session under the guidance of two local instructors Anna O’Toole and Emma Hennessy.
The club, which has 15 registered members so far, is affiliated to Canoeing Ireland and is providing skills training to members with a view to developing kayaking and canoeing services locally.
