We’re excited to bring back our Ascot Paddle Passport course — and term 4 we’re changing from our usual Saturday mornings to Wednesday afternoons.

The course runs from 28 October to 18 November, starting at 4:30pm each Wednesday.

It’s designed for children aged 8+, with all equipment provided (boat, paddle, PFD) and support from Paddle WA instructors.

It’s a great way for kids to try kayaking and explore joining our Junior Program.

Registrations now open — beginners welcome.

A friendly reminder for all AKC members:

Membership renewals are due by 30 September, and all renewals must be completed through Paddle Australia’s JustGo Membership Portal. Renewing through JustGo ensures your club access, insurance and—if you have a rack, which will be invoiced separately—your allocation stays active for the new season.

You’ve got until the end of the month, but renewing now helps us keep everything running smoothly and avoids any last‑minute issues.

Thanks for your support and for being part of our paddling community 💚💛

🚣‍♀️ Watching the Avon Descent this weekend and thinking about giving paddling a go?🌊

The Avon Descent may look a little different this year, with a smaller field and a shortened course, but it’s still a fantastic weekend to celebrate the sport, the river and the paddling community! 💙

And here’s the exciting part — you don’t have to be an experienced paddler or a Descent competitor to get involved.

Our Adult Introductory Course is back in September!🎉

It’s the perfect opportunity to:
🌊 Get out on the water
🚣‍♀️ Learn the basics of kayaking
🙌 Meet new people
💪 Challenge yourself and try something new
😊 Have fun in a safe and supportive environment

Everyone starts somewhere. Why not start with us?

You might be watching the Avon Descent this weekend… and paddling yourself before you know it! 😉

📚 Head to the link in our bio or follow our socials for course details and bookings.

See you on the river! 🌊🚣‍♂️

Big weekend ahead with the Avon Descent!

A huge shout‑out to all our Ascot Kayak Club paddlers taking part, and to the club members volunteering across the event. Your time, energy and commitment help keep this iconic race running — even with the river looking a little lean this year.

We’re proud of you all.

Paddle strong and have a great weekend.
