Canoe Around Ireland - An eveing with Elaine 'Shooter' Alexander - Oct 22nd
« on: September 28, 2011 »
Hi all,

Many of you will have followed Elaine 'Shooter' Alexander's successful solo kayak challenge around earlier Ireland this year.

For those of you who are unaware:

In May 2011 Elaine ‘Shooter’ Alexander embarked on the challenge to become the first women from Northern Ireland to circumnavigate Ireland by kayak.

The motivation from the trip was not only the 1000 mile journey but the raise much needed funds for the registered charity – Share Centre (SHARE).

After 71 gruelling days that seen her take on one of the stormiest summers in recent years, Elaine arrived back at Whitehead.

On Saturday 22nd October you can hear her story, see and feel the equipment she used, ask her questions and see unique video footage and photos that made this trip so challenging and rewarding.

For more information see http://www.canoeni.com/have-a-go/events/?id=2826 or http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=259770347378798

Thanks,

Chris
