Greetings, As some of you may know, I have arranged for two Level-5 BCU (British Canoe Union) coaches to come over here from England for some BCU Sea-Kayak training in mid March. I took a BCU course last August in Sidney, BC, Canada and was very impressed with the depth and extent of the training. It is for this reason that I am wishing to get further training, and am offering you a chance to jump in on it also. For those of you who know Nigel Foster, you have an idea about this. These coaches are at the same level in the BCU coaching scheme as Nigel. The cost of the three-day course is $200 and will pay for their transportation, food, lodging and stipends. The BCU coaches will determine what level you will start your training at. There are five proficiency levels and five coaching levels. It may be possible to get training for both categories (to be arranged later). The dates for the courses are: Session #1 March 20-22 (three days) Class #2 March 23-25 (three days) If you are interested, you will need to let me know for each date, the following information: First choice Second Choice No Choice (cannot make it then) If you want to get on a list and receive more information I will need to hear from you by March 5. I cannot guarantee that you will enjoy the class as much as I did, but from talking to these guys, I think you will.
