A proportional exemption is provided for eligible residences that have a fair market value of up to $25,000 above the new threshold.

The goals for this year are simple as always. Our mantra is Drink, Paddle, and Party. Granted Elephant and Castle has always had a reputation for having fun and paddling hard at every festival, I take pride in my team for sponsoring junior teams such as Raceface. Raceface was a junior team that E&C took under its wing. E&C introduced them to the sport and supported their growth as a team. They are a great bunch of kids. I mean young adults just incase any of Raceface reads this.

See you on the water and if your interested in paddling. Come try out.
