We are currently in the throws of running through our autumn/winter short course programme in the UK. With a patchy old time again, much like autumn last year. More recently however the rains have come and we have had come great levels for a wide range of courses in Devon. 

We can congratulate Deb Pinniger for her recruitment as a lecturer in Fort William at the Highlands and Islands University in Scotland. Both Jakub Sedivy and Jake Holland have been on their travels to Africa and Asia. Plus have been hitting the ski slopes enjoying early snow already across the Alps. Eariler this month at the Gene17 Adventure Paddlers Weekend, our 16th Edition, in spite of low water we had a great turn out again, thank you to all.

This is the last of our 2017 Newletters. After a hard year at Gene17Kayaking, let us say with a few weeks rest ahead for reflection and time at home. We wish you all a Peaceful Christmas and a Happy New Year.
