Blessington 500km Kayak Challenge 2011
        
        
        
1st OCTOBER 2011
        
Join us in our 500 kilometre paddle on Blessington lakes on Saturday 1st October 2011, Russeltown Park, 10am to 4pm

Choose the distance you would like to kayak 4, 6 or 10 km or more if you wish. The idea is to kayak an accumulation of 500 kilometres or more on the day.

Niamh McGrath introduced kayaking to Spinal Injuries Ireland. She inspired people who had suffered spinal cord damage and paralysis by showing that there is life after spinal injury and it can be active and adventurous with the right network of support.

This event also helps raise awareness about SII’s work and the issues affecting those with spinal cord injury, and to gain publicity, support and funding for the organisation’s work.
kayaking has now become an ongoing part of Spinal Injuries Ireland Venture Activities Programme.

Contact Spinal Injuries Ireland on 01-2355317 or email liz@spinalinjuries.ie to find out more about this event and how you can get involved.
