Archived trip from old website run by Alana
Skyfire is one of Canberra's more speccy firework extravaganzas, with the display choreographed to a 104.7 FM soundtrack. http://communityswitch.com.au/events/view/11958/1047-skyfire-2016/
We'll meet at the boat shed at 5pm, take the sea kayaks and go for a bit of a paddle before pulling up on Springbank Island for a BBQ. Then we'll hop back into the boats and paddle up to Commonwealth Bridge and watch the fireworks (8.30) from the water before heading back to the shed in the dark.
Bring:
- hat and sunscreen
- warm clothes (e.g. wind/water proof jacket)
- BBQ food and implements / nibbles to share
- water
- head torch or bike light (a MUST for paddling on the lake at night - there will be several other boats out on the lake)
- portable radio if you have it, for listening to the sound track
- $2 boat hire
As we'll be paddling in the dark, I'll only be taking people who have had their membership card stamped at a 'come and try' session (watch the trip calendar - they'll be appearing soon!) and have been on a few follow up sessions on the lake.
