    Hi guys,
    Can you please put your name down if you are able to help out? We have 20 young people coming for a fun afternoon and currently only 2 members saying they can do things.
    We will need some people on the water (not necesarily coaches), and to help sort boats (open and short boats), bouyancy aids etc out.
    We will also need some food for them...are you able to make cake, sandwiches etc and generally help out in the club house and set up while the kids are mucking about on the water.

    Many thanks

    Have agreed to organise tea, must be mad!! Could people let me know what they are bringing for tea; we need to feed a total of about 30 and the kids are conservative; fairy cakes, small cup cakes or tray bakes, small sausage rolls, maybe cheese straws. If anyone can emulate Therese who made a memorable kayaking cake complete with chocolate paddle.......! I will do the sandwiches and be there to set out etc from 12.30. Cheers Jacqui

    Re the tea! I've got the bread, sandwich fillings, crisps, pieces of cheese, mimi satsumas, some little bits of brownies etc, iced traybake. squash, milk, tea, coffee. So with sausage rolls from Pete, cake from Vicky and biscuits from Naomi, I think food is sorted. I've got some gluten free bread n cake if needed. I'll come tomorrow before the racers leave. So Mike, see you there when you arrive. Cheers Jacqui
