Twilight Paddle September 2022

The Bourne Water Dragons enjoy their last evening paddle of 2022.

October 2022

What a wonderful paddle we all had tonight, our last Thursday evening paddle of 2022! We built up our strength with sausage rolls and plenty of snacks before the paddle which kept us fuelled for a long steady paddle towards the Mudeford Spit. On the return journey we all switched on our head torches it must have been a wonderful sight paddling up the river towards home.

Obviously more refreshments were needed on our return as we all raised a hot cuppa to our last evening paddle till 2023 Thank you Team BWD!!
