The annual PaddleAble & Open Spectrum summer camp took place this year across a week in August at the Canoeing Ireland Training Centre. This year we saw twenty six individuals from Open Spectrum joining us on the River Liffey to experience the beautiful environment we all love so much through paddle sports. Our team of 8 experienced instructors and volunteers paddled with the participants in 1:1 ratios to ensure that each individual had the best introduction and progression during their sessions with us and we were so delighted to see everyone enjoy themselves so much! The sun was shining for the whole week while the participants explored the riverbanks, fish, insects and even took on Palmerstown Weir!
A big thank you to all of the staff, volunteers and most importantly the parents and participants who make all of this possible!
We also want to thank all of the activity providers and clubs who are running PaddleAble Programmes this year to support everyone in our community to enjoy paddle sports.
