Announcement: South West Canoe Show & KanuMesse
Posted: pete @ Mon Aug 09, 2010 1:26 am
Gene17 will be presenting at the South West Canoe Show, in Exeter, Devon 25th September. This is the season opening event for South West paddling, and now in its 7th year hosted by AS Watersports, its a great time to catch up with people, hear of Summer adventures and enjoy their great Pig Roast. Gene17 will also be at KanuMesse checking out the new products for 2011, needless to say we are always working with our partners to develop products, some of which will be released at KanuMesse, along with a host of new products. It’s always an exciting show, and chance to see where the industry is heading, and to see whether paddlers are shaping the future of products they want. A full report by our MD Simon Westgarth in October.

Happy Paddling

Simon@Gene17
