Paddle on the Thames 2022 - 22-24 July - cancelled
some stage next year, I am looking at possibly running a weekend trip on the Thames, along the stretch through Windsor with a stop to have a nose around.
this was in the area I did my first ever Kayak trip nearly 30 years ago!
This would be camping, and likely a multi site camp. further than that, I havent planned, this is initially to guage interest
it would be open to any craft.
You would need to be a BC member (not just a club member) due to the waterways license.
If you think you might be interested, please put your name below, then when I am a little less snowed under, I will look into it a bit more.

so, looking at end of July for this, school terms end 28 July, so weekend before / weekend after ? any preferences?
Bumping this thread for the new Canoeists in the club!
I am potentially up for this. I live in London, so not far to go for me. I have not paddled on the non-tidal thames but paddle weekly on the tidal thames around Putney Bridge.
ok, I am trying to sort the site at the moment, my plan of a multi site hasnt come to fruiton, so we are looking at 1 site for 2 nights.
anyone interested, please add your names now so I can confirm availability of site (and cost). those of you who have already shown interest, @Fiona_H @CWalter12 are you still interested?
I'm interested in coming with a club sea kayak. We were discussing this at the sea kayak group this evening, so you might get another.
I'd like to come and can lead the sea kayak group.
I know I have been slack in sorting this, life has gotten in the way!
I have updated the post, but the site I am looking at ideally want a group booking (x number of tents) so I need as soon as possible confirmation of who is coming or not (and what you are paddiling, some I know, as listed, some I'm guessing).
Cost will be £15 a night per person (min 2 nights), (with the hire of a portaloo/tent and extra £5 a night unless someone has one they can bring - let me know)
Friday will be a travel up and set up, saturday/sunday will be paddling, return home on Sunday.
You do need to be a paid up member of the club, and a BC member (as the Thames is a licensed waterway and BC membership covers this).
the site I am looking at is Scotlands house campsite - https://www.scotlandshouse.co.uk/
can you please let me know ASAP if you are still interested in this, (if the cost of living/fuel hasn't impacted too greatly on you yet).
I'm in. Club sea kayak. Since we're not moving site, I guess all the camping stuff can be left at the site/cars rather than having to get it in the boats?
