THREE WEEKS OF FUN ON THE WATER
Over three weeks , team paddlers from Pyranha and Palm tour white water courses across England , Wales , Scotland and Ireland . Paddlers are encouraged to come and join them for some fun on the water , with the opportunity to then hear from and meet those paddlers afterwards .
I was involved with some of the Park Jam dates in 2023 and was thrilled to get involved again in 2024 . Life has been a little busy lately , but I managed to join for four out of nine of the dates and had a great time during those events . I am sure there will be blog posts from team paddlers in the coming weeks to share a more official account , but here is mine if you want to read it !
