It was good\nto see paddlers returning last week after the easing of the regulations.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we all\nknow, we must continue to keep group numbers to 10 or under.&nbsp; Your continued co-operation helps ensure that\nour club can continue to operate for the benefit of our paddling family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 2020\nPacific Coast Virtual series kicked off last Sunday.&nbsp; Paddlers must submit three race times to <a href=\"mailto:events.qld@paddle.org.au\">events.qld@paddle.org.au<\/a> by the second Sunday of each month.&nbsp;\nIt\u2019s great to see some members who don\u2019t usually race entering this\ncompetition.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\nstore your boat in the club house you will have noticed the dinghy has been\nstored outside.&nbsp; This has allowed the\nbottom boat rack to be fixed.&nbsp; Thanks\nMalcolm!&nbsp; Not to mention the ease of boat\nretrieval and return, for members who store their boats in the central section\nof the club house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the\nclosure of come and try and learn to paddle has been a set back, it has\npresented an opportunity for TK1 boat maintenance.&nbsp; Thank you to Bob Hamblet for his ongoing\nefforts in fixing these and other club boats.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Malcolm\nBuchanan and Rob Burrell have been working through the summer months to keep\nthe club yard neat and tidy.&nbsp; It is\nimportant to present a good image to the community as the club house has a high\nprofile on Fishermans Road with the bike track\/walk-way skirting the perimeter\nand Lions Park markets at the boat ramp.&nbsp;\nAt least the grass will be growing slower now that winter weather is\nupon us and this will give you guys some respite.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As\nmentioned in the April update, the club house is due for repainting.&nbsp; This will commence at the end of May.&nbsp; Norm and Maureen Jackson will be undertaking\nthis task.&nbsp; They were part of the\ninaugural membership group and are painters by trade.&nbsp; They have provided a sample of the new colour\nwhich can be seen on the front between the east roller door and the switch\nbox.&nbsp; The roof etc will be repainted in\nthe same shade of green.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will have seen the emails for\nPaddle Australia and Paddle Queensland that includes information on this year\u2019s\nfees.&nbsp; The committee has set our fees for\nthe 2020\/2021 year at:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Senior $170<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Junior $115 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your\ncommittee has also been considering options for boosting the budget following\nthe cancellation of our race on 17 May (approx $2,000 income) and the possible\nloss of the Maroochy River Paddle (approx $2,000 income) in August.&nbsp; By August there may be an opportunity to hold\na race but we need to be prepared for the worst case scenario.&nbsp; At lease these events are spread across two\nfinancial years and we\u2019re working on options to keep our books in the black\nuntil we can return to fund-raising activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As\nmentioned previously, the committee is open to ideas and suggestions.&nbsp; Please contact us if you have any queries <a href=\"mailto:sunshinecoastpaddlesports@gmail.com\">sunshinecoastpaddlesports@gmail.com<\/a>&nbsp;\nAdditionally, if you have time and energy to contribute in some way eg\nmanaging the face book posts, your assistance would be greatly\nappreciated.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are all\nlooking forward to the re-commencement of activities like come and try; learn\nto paddle; and monthly time trials in the coming months.&nbsp; In the mean time, keep paddling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-very-dark-gray-color has-very-light-gray-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\">Regards,\nDelia West, President;
