Boat to raise funds

Published: Friday, 22 January 2010

THE Kennet & Avon Canal Trust has leased a 60ft passenger boat the Kenavon Venture from White Horse Boats, to help raise funds for the trust.

The boat can take up to 50 passengers, and the boat is moored by its museum and shop at Devizes Wharf. However the trust's general manager Mike Rodd is asking for volunteers  to act as crews for the boat, who of course would be fully trained.

Not only for the boat handling, but people to act as booking managers and bar attendants, with those interested invited to a meeting at the Canal Centre, in Couch Lane at 7.30pm on the 1st February.
