After seeing a load of Santas running over one of the Ness Island bridges as we paddled under it last year, members of Inverness Canoe Club decided to take part...but with one small difference...

No running for us...so, 2009 saw the first ever 'Santa Paddle' as part of the 'Wild Hearts' Santa Run...

Despite rain, very high water levels and plenty of cold air, seven Santas made it down the Ness in kayaks - not Rudolf, though, as it was his day off!!

Newsflash

From Monday 15 June, we'll be using a new equipment hire booking system to manage club equipment hire. Full details of our new equipment hire policy and guidelines for booking equipment can be found under the 'Equipment Hire' section of the website.

The main changes are as follows:

  • The hire of equipment for non-club activities will now be £10 per day;
  • The hire of equipment for club activities remains £5 per day;
  • The availability of boats can be viewed via the club's website and/or the new electronic 'boat hire system';
  • A list of 'volunteer hirers' can be view on the website (please don't aways call the same person!);
  • Revised terms & conditions of hire are available to view via the website - this include limitations to the use of club equipment.
