Pentland Canoe Club Ready To Take To The Road With New Canoe Trailer
The Thurso based Pentland Canoe Club has taken delivery of a new canoe trailer. The trailer is to be used by the Club to transport kayaks to various club venues including the Thurso Swimming Pool where it runs
training sessions during the Winter.  The trailer was purchased with support from: the Caithness Sports Council; UKAEA; RWE NUKEM; Babtie; NDSL and Forss Engineering. Simon Copsey commented that the purchase would not have been achievable without the generosity of the contributing local businesses and organisations. The trailer will be off benefit to all of the club members, especially the younger individuals who have no transport of their own.
