Last Weeks Racing, Awards and Training News

Now that the weather is getting warmer (or maybe not) things are starting to become more busy for our athletes. The Juniors are still in Downunder but I heard it's raining a lot there but it is warm :-)
Congratulations to Nicole Haywood for being recognized by the Premier Award for the sport of Canoe/Kayak in the province of BC: http://www2.canada.com/burnabynow/news/sports/story.html?id=8036f150-48c7-4c6a-a4ae-5969d16c2a3c.
Last Saturday the first masters practice of the year 2009 happend on a now ice-free lake but unfortunatley not very many paddlers showed up. It was a beautiful sunny and calm day on the lake.
Last Sunday, BCKC's masters Jeff, Jean, Chris and Katja went to Nanaimo for the Shack Attack race. Have a look at the race results and video taken from the stern of Jeff's and Katja's surfski double: http://surfskibc.wordpress.com/2009/02/23/race-results-february-22-at-nanaimo/.
