Welcome to the Brits Blog!

Well we are finally getting to grips with the organisation of the Brits and thought the easiest way to keep everyone updated would be through a blog so here it is!

The plan so far.... the comp is to be held at Druridge Bay in Northumberland, only 30 mins from newcastle airport!! The area is a country park with a cafe and toilets, a lake and a two minute walk to the beach so we think it is ideal.

The council will allow camping on the site and we are planning to have a marquee too so there will be a central meeting point. We will also be holding a BBQ in the marquee on the Saturday evening with a couple of local bands playing all being well. A grand prize raffle should see some great equipment prizes from our event sponsors..

A come and try canoeing session will be run on the Saturday and Sunday open to all aimed at getting newcomers into the exciting sport of canoeing, Bring a towel and some clothing you dont mind getting wet in.

We will shortly be posting information about other accommodation which is available in the area, the local tourist board contact details ans more information about the event as we confirm things, so watch this space....
