Nevis Canoes Grand Opening

Yes there is going to be a kayak shop in Fort Bill.

Grand Opening is the 17th Feb on the Mountain Film Festival weekend, however the shop will be open from the 2nd february.

Should be a great wee place for river levels advise, the places to go and for all those bits you either forget to bring with you or lose on the river.

Go visit it on your next trip to the Fort. Will be located on the Ben Nevis industrial estate(Nr argos I think)

Chris,

It will be owned by Dave Rossiter from Stirling Canoes. Will be an excellant shop especially for people who loose or damage there kit while up that area.

Staff - I belive all staff have been recruited but probably best to check for confirmation.

Will be run by Keith Mckerral who has worked for Dave before both in the shop in Stirling and coaching. Eventually (if it takes off well) they will probably need part timers

Think the plan is to have it open Fri - Mondays and see how it goes
