SUMMARY:Hairy Lemon Kayaking & Pentathlon Weekend
DESCRIPTION:The long awaited Hairy Lemon weekend is back. So get ready for the social highlight in MCU’s calendar with a Lemon Sports Pentathlon organised for Sunday.  \nFor the kayakers the Hairy Lemon weekend offers the great opportunity to explore a different part of the river and run some new rapids. Kayak the Nile will be offering discounted kayaking lessons for beginners to advanced kayakers. For more details and sign-up click here to sign-up. \nNon-kayakers are more than welcome to join – judging from last time there were definitely more people just enjoying a chilled out weekend than kayaking.\nAs the Hairy Lemon is an island\, it is vital that you book accommodation and please note that the usual shuttle service is not available for Hairy Lemon weekends. \nFor the Lemon Pentathlon\, we’ll get as many people as possible together\, divide them into random teams (great chance to make some new friends)\, and have them compete in the classic Lemon games like volleyball\, lemon twister\, frisbee golf\, viking chess\, etc. Teams will rotate and compete against one another for the highest score. There’ll be a big scoreboard\, points for the best dressed team\, a potential showdown between the runner-ups\, anything we can think of really. I’d be a good chance to get non-kayakers to the Lemon and people who would want to go on the water can still do so the two other days.  \nPlease email laurabierer@gmail.com if you have any questions.

SUMMARY:3rd Annual Girls Gone Nile
DESCRIPTION:For the third time\, ladies in Uganda are taking over the Nile! The weekend will be about female paddlers supporting each other on and off the river and is a good chance for women to learn from one another while enjoying all the Nile has to offer. The event is open to all skill levels. Non-kayaking ladies are welcome to come hang out but if you learned on the Nile you must have done at least 3 lessons with Kayak the Nile to paddle. Note\, this is not an official lesson with professional instructors\, this is more of a casual gathering for women to get together to share and build experience and push each other in a encouraging environment. Fill in the Google Form to sign up! \n \nGirls Gone Nile 2016 from Shannon Orcutt on Vimeo. \nThe only costs involved are if you need to rent kayaking equipment and we’ll split the price of transport. You should bring your own lunch for both days and we will be doing dinner and breakfast potluck style. \nSATURDAY FEBRUARY 11 \nWe will meet at Kayak the Nile in Bujagali at 10AM drive to Jenny and Charlie’s land at Superhole. We’ll do a brief Superhole session then the intermediate/ advanced group paddle down to Nile Special. We’ll be cooking out\, camping\, and living it up at the land. \nSUNDAY FEBRUARY 12 \nWe’ll make a quick breakfast then head out to the river likely splitting into a beginner and more advanced groups to practice skills and surfing around Superhole. Likely leaving the land around 3pm. \nSign up here or email shannon.orcutt@gmail.com for details 🙂 \n

SUMMARY:MCU Kayak Weekend- Hairy Lemon Edition
DESCRIPTION:The long awaited Hairy Lemon kayaking weekend is back! \nThis is definitely the social highlight of the MCU kayaking calendar with a big fancy dress party on Saturday night. Non-kayakers are more than welcome to join – judging from last time there were definitely more people just enjoying a chilled out weekend than kayaking. \nFor the kayakers the Hairy Lemon weekend will give you the opportunity to run some of the other rapids further down the river. Make use of this opportunity as many of these rapids will disappear once the dam is built. Beginners are more than welcome and the stellar Kayak the Nile team will be offering lessons for the total beginners to the more experienced kayakers. Take a look here for more details on the lessons and MCU discounts. The sign-up sheet will become available after the last month’s lesson took place – so please do not sign up yet. \nAccommodation: \nAs the Hairy Lemon is an island\, it is vital that you book accommodation! You might be turned away if you don’t book as they have to organise food and the non-camping options will most definitely sell out. \nTransport: \nAs this weekend takes place at the Hairy Lemon\, it will not be possible to use the shuttle option. So you’ll need to organise your own ride! Please use the Facebook group to offer or ask for a ride – as usual please make sure to chip in for petrol. It should be around 25k per person there and back in a full car. The road to the Hairy Lemon isn’t the best especially not during rainy season\, so using a 4 wheel drive is advisable. \nTheme: “Human Drawings in Leggins and Hats”\nSo get a plain T-Shirt with markers and body paint ready!!!\nIt’s your choice to create your own drawings or to wait till the evening and let everyone else have a go in creating a human drawing out of you.\nSpice up your costume with colourful leggins\, a hat or any other accessory you seem fit for your human artwork. \nPlease let laurabierer@gmail.com know if you have any questions.

SUMMARY:2nd Annual Girls Gone Nile
DESCRIPTION:For the second time\, ladies in Uganda are taking over the Nile! The weekend will be about female paddlers supporting each other on and off the river and is a good chance for women to learn from one another while enjoying all the Nile has to offer. The event is open to all skill levels. Non-kayaking ladies are welcome to come hang out but if you learned on the Nile you must have done at least 3 lessons with Kayak the Nile to paddle. Note\, this is not an official lesson with professional instructors\, this is more of a casual gathering for women to get together to share and build experience and push each other in an encouraging environment. \nThe only costs involved are if you need to rent kayaking equipment and we’ll split the price of transport. You should bring your own lunch for both days and we will be doing dinner and breakfast potluck style. \nSATURDAY APRIL 30 \nWe will meet at Kayak the Nile in Bujagali at 10AM drive to Jenny and Charlie’s land at Superhole. We’ll do a brief Superhole session then the intermediate/ advanced group paddle down to Nile Special. We’ll be cooking out\, camping\, and living it up at the land. \nSUNDAY MAY 1 \nWe’ll make a quick breakfast then head out to the river likely splitting into a beginner and more advanced groups to practice skills and surfing around Superhole. Likely leaving the land around 3pm. \nFill out the Google form to sign up and email shannon.orcutt@gmail.com if you have any questions!
