Dear Friends,

The world is changing, however, the canoeing spring season in
Denmark is in full bloom. We are excited to end our 100 years
anniversary season with 2021 ICF Canoe Sprint and Paracanoe
World Championships, Denmark.

You all know or can imagine how much it takes to arrange a big event
- especially a world event - and how difficult it is to be sure of basically
anything in the world right now. However, we really want to give you
the best event we can possibly arrange this year. It has been too long
since we met up last time.

It will be extremely helpful for us if you would sign up as quickly as
possible. It is so much easier to plan a safe and fun competition when
we know how many to plan for.

We understand that it is difficult to make travel decisions right now,
however we would like to remind you that there is a full refund if
cancelled before July 9th, 2021.

We are looking forward to seeing you in Denmark.

Thank you for supporting this years events,
The Organizing Committee
