Paddle For Life 2010
Paddle for Life started in 2010. Here are some pictures from that event
The first paddle for life event in August 2010 was a great success and the joint winners on both our trophy categories were:
- Winners of our raft race: Huggard Pirates/ Boats N Hoes
- Winners of our highest fundraisers: Save the Children/ HMS Wet Wedgies
- Winners of our Best Dressed Team: Lynford – Granny Raft
Congratulations and many thanks to all of you, the standards have definitely been set for future years!
The HMS Wet Wedgies also made fantastic efforts with their fancy dress, It really was an incredible site to see those grannies paddle with such strength against a team in spandex! We would also like to recognise the efforts of the Achilles team whom travelled from Scunthorpe to compete in the 2010 Paddle for Life thank you for being a part of the first ever event and we hope you will return next year.
Commiserations go to the Titanic team, whom where both titanic in name and titanic in nature, we hope you return next year with a sturdy raft that will endure the course- many thanks for your participation on the day! We would additionally like to recognise the great efforts of the Makro team whom where ever present through the duration of the day and night events, they have been a great support to the event and have raised an outstanding sum of money for the charity over the years!
