CONGRATULATIONS to our club's newest L2 Instructor

CONGRATULATIONS to our club's newest L2 Instructors, Catherine and Derek, on passing their L2 Instructor Assessment yesterday.

It takes a lot of work and dedication to complete an instructorship! It's great to see all the hard work paying off.

Special thanks to all our volunteers for supporting the assessment, couldn't do it without you.

Thank you also to Alan Judge for the assessment.

What a great turnout we had last night for our cleanup of the Garavogue. The photos only show one of the piles of rubbish we pulled out which included a TV, microwave, weights, phones, lots of vapes, and hundreds of glasses, bottles and other bits and pieces. Hopefully we made a good dent in the amount of rubbish that's there.
Thanks a million to all the members who joined the clean up and to Sligo Tidy Towns.
Let's keep Sligo clean!

Our summer season will be drawing to a close later

Our summer season will be drawing to a close later this month, unfortunately. We want to take this opportunity to celebrate one of the little wins we had this year...we finally got our canoe polo kicked off and it has proven very popular with both our adults and juniors. Hopefully we can continue to build on this early enthusiasm and start to grow a team to compete with some of our neighbouring clubs in the coming year. Thanks to all who supported the push this summer. 👏👏👏
