Zoe & Alexis Paddle to Japan

Well done Team NZ 🇳🇿

We are all incredibly proud of you!

See Canoe Racing New Zealand post for all the results.

Great first day of racing for the New Zealand team on Friday.

Probably saw too much sun 🌞 but getting out on the water with the team & getting to know the other competitors was lots of fun.

So proud of the New Zealand team! Congratulations to all the paddlers.

Day off today and back into to it tomorrow.

Unfortunately, the weather forecast for Saturday in Komatsu is looking poor.

Saturday morning racing has been moved forward to today, which means racing will begin approx an hour earlier.

Please see the schedule for updated times.

St Johns Club

What an absolute bunch of legends, the members are here.

We went into the club on Friday evening, to sell a few tickets for the raffle.
We got way more support than we ever expected.

They got us up the front for a quick introduction and to encourage members to support our cause.

And support, they did.

We cannot thank Lynda and all the members enough. Your generosity was overwhelming!

You guys are amazing!

ALL 500 TICKETS HAVE BEEN SOLD!!

Thank you so much to everyone who purchased tickets in our raffle.
