2nd UK Storm Gathering

October 2006 saw nearly a hundred kayakers gather for the UK’s first Storm Gathering on the Island of Mull. Organised by Mark Tozer it provided a memorable opportunity for paddlers to come together and share their experiences and skills. Building on this success Stornoway Canoe Club are hosting the second event on the Isle of Lewis from 18-20 October 2007.

The Isle of Lewis Gathering

With its world-class sea kayaking, the Isle of Lewis is the ideal location to host the second gathering. The islands have a longstanding and rich relationship with the sea and provide the chance to combine the adventures of sea kayaking with a cultural celebration. Appropriately the hub for the event will be based in Stornoway’s new Arts Centre, An Lanntair.

As well as providing sixty places for kayakers additional places at the event are available for cultural participants. We recommend early booking and further details are on the booking page.
