All are welcome to come along on Saturday October 18 to try their hand at outrigger canoe paddling with Bribie Island Mahalo Outrigger Canoe Club (BIMOCC). BIMOCC are an active group of enthusiastic paddlers looking to enjoy the pleasures of our Pumicestone passage, whilst keeping fit and having fun. It is not uncommon to see dolphins, turtles or dugongs during a paddle session. If this is something you have considered, come on down to our next ‘Come and Try’ day on Saturday October 18. We’ll be set up from 9am until 10am at Crest Park (opposite the VMR), so come along and give it a go! We have crews on the water every day of the week for all standards of paddlers, including social race crews, as well as for those purely focusing on fitness and fun.
You may even see some of our outriggers on long distance training sessions, as we have both a men’s and ladies team focused on training for an upcoming event at Norfolk Island. To save a seat for you in one of our canoes, email bribieoutriggers@gmail.com or find us on Facebook - Bribie Island Mahalo Outrigger Canoe Club. Mahalo and Happy Paddling, Gary Finlay, BIMOCC president
