Logbooks are required to contain the following information:
Instructors, guides, leaders & etc are required to submit a logbook as part of the re-registration process every 3 years, so keeping your logbook up-to-date is important. To construct your own logbook - open an excel file and enter the details in each column. Update soon after each paddling activity to keep it up-to-date. Different worksheets can be used for different paddling activity (eg: recreation, sea paddling, competition & etc)
Please note: Summaries such as "5 Paddles during December, various locations" are considered unvarifiable and inadmissible in courts as evidence of currenct practice and are therefore unacceptable when re-registering your award.
All Australian Canoeing members are able to use the on-line logbook available through the My Club website. Contact Canoe SA on 08 8240 3294 for assistance
