Leicester Waterside Festival
A fantastic weekend! Over 200 people had a go at paddling during the two days. The Djembi Drumming on the rafted bellboat stage won the 'Brewster Award' for outstanding contribution to the festival.
The club's present popularity, sense of direction and enthusiasm are all a fine tribute to Adam's aspirations for PaddlePlus.
