Help needed - Navigation Skills course - Sun 26/5

[Neil Gunn]

Help needed for the Basic Navigation Skills Course (26/5) - so far we have 4 people coming along to help at the afternoon session (Andy S, Dave Tucker, Hazel Winder and me) - we really need 6 helpers as we have 6 pairs of people needing support for the afternoon practical session. You would be needed from about 1.00pm in the Goyt Valley. Navigation skills useful(!).

Please message me if you can help out.

Thank you,
Neil G

Hi Neil,
Sorry, that is half-term week, and it is Helvellyn and the Dodds, so I'll be sunning myself in Threlkeld

No can do Neil. I will be navigating my way along the Dordogne river in my canoe!

Have fun

Dave

Hi again,

We still need one more person to help with the afternoon session for the Navigation course on Sunday 26th May - at present we have 5 people who have offered help. The role is to accompany/support 2 course participants as they navigate around a short 5 mile course in the Goyt Valley - we will be starting about 1.00pm and expect to finish by 4.00pm. This could be a good chance to practice your own navigation skills whilst helping the beginners!

If you can find time to help it would be very much appreciated. Please post here or message me at neil.gunn@gmail.com

Thanks,
Neil G & Phil Cheek

If there is enough interest we will have another course in the autumn,
