So are you up for the Challenge?
The Canoe SA Team Paddle Challenge (Sat 23 & Sun 24 October) is one of the largest paddling events for young South Australians who enjoy the outdoors, have a sense of adventure and want to have fun with friends.
The event starts at Roonka Water Activity Centre (near Blanchetown) with teams using a map and co-ordinates to locate the checkpoint markers in an attempt to gain the most points. Checkpoints are hidden on the rivers edge and surrounding bush land. The Team Paddle Challenge is all about teamwork. Canoe SA provides a well co-ordinated safety network for the event. Register your teams by Friday 10th September.
What will your young people get out of this weekend? They will learn about working as a team, paddling together, searching together to find those hidden checkpoint markers, encouraging each other and having lots of laughs. Take up the challenge.
