 Post subject: Squirt spots in the Lake district? |
 |
|
Hey, anybody know of squirt spots in the lakes?
Obviously there is the many lakes but any good eddy lines?
Also thinking of bringing a group of outdoor students down from the lakes to HPP, would there be any chance of some demo boats, it will most porbably be the weekend of the 20th/21st?
We will spend all day there, what are the prices for a ticket to use the course as well, can't find it on the website?
Thats a lot of questions!!!

course is £10 for the day and £5 after 6pm weekdays, check they are open before travelling as some weekends are exclusive use and you cant get on.
i beleive, but dont quote me on this, that desperate meaures are waiting for a new demo squirt boat, they usually charge £10 for a demo refundable if you buy. if u ask him nicely downtime dave may do you a similar deal
enjoy !

Thanks Dave, I will definitely be in contact - I can't say we will be there for definite as it depends on drivers and the take up at the uni.
Thanks for all the help,
