‘Find a paddle buddy’ at SCC

This secure and private SCC Facebook Group has been running for a few months now and has about 35 members.  It allows SCC members to propose or find paddles of a certain nature and timing.  To join this group you first need to join Facebook and then request to become a paddle buddy group member via our Membership Officer.  If you use Facebook carefully none of your information etc will be made public.  Note these are peer paddles as explained here.

Sea lions spotted

Two Saturday’s ago a group of early morning paddlers were very excited to have a close encounter with two sea lions heading upstream near the East Fremantle yacht club, so keep an eye out for these wonderful creatures.
