Membership Information

Currently, the LCRK has around 120 members. We welcome and encourage new members to join regardless of their paddling ability or experience. There is plenty of friendly advice and encouragement to be had down at the river for all newcomers. LCRK also offers formal training sessions on paddling technique and a regular program of social paddles which are conducted at a pace which suits everybody.

LCRK membership fees pay for equipment and services such as electronic timers, race buoys, lights, barbeques, stationery and postage. Fees are due on July 1 each year and cover the period until the following June 30.

Joining LCRK is done online. But first (for insurance purposes) you need to join PaddleNSW, and this can be done by going to the PaddleNSW website. You then join LCRK, by going to the LCRK membership site.
