2012 Victorian Schools and Scouts Whitewater Canoeing Championships

Roy Farrance, Monday, 23 July 2012

Canoeing Victoria welcomes all paddlers, teachers, scouts, scout masters and spectators to the 2012 Victorian Schools and Scouts Whitewater Canoeing Championships on 1-2 September 2012

 The event has two purposes; one is to encourage participation by all paddlers regardless of standard. We believe in the philosophy of participation, to encourage people to be involved, to be active and to encourage a healthy lifestyle.

The second aim is to encourage friendly competition between the schools, and scout groups, and to encourage the paddlers to give their best. From this competition paddlers will have the opportunity to become involved in the junior development programs in both downriver and slalom.

The organisation of the championships has been achieved through the co-operation of the schools and scout groups involved, the whitewater committees and Canoeing Victoria. The event has been organized by a number of volunteers. We thank all these people for their co- operation, their hard work and time in organizing this great event. We also thank all the people here today who have helped to get boats on the water, helped to judge, erect the course and the multitude of other tasks which have to be done.
