Rolling festival 2020


Rolling Festival  - almost as usual!

This years rolling festival was very different from other years. First, we changed the dates and second corona hit us, so we had to make even more changes. Dubside wasn't able to leave USA and for a while we didn't know whether or not we could run the event at all. In the end we landed on an event where we cut out beginner and intermediate rolling sessions, added a paddle making class and strokes classes and had Bjørn Hesthamar doing a presentation on the Thule region in North of Greenland. So in the end it all turned out so well. The event was smaller so we held the classes 2 minutes from the Chapel on our local river. Instructors this year was Jon David Jensen, Jannie Heegaard and Anders Thygesen.
