There are very few sports where newcomers and world class athletes can share the same field of play. An environment like ours is truly special allowing everyone to grow as paddlers and learn from each other as skills improve. There is no secret to success - it's hard work, time in the boat and remembering technique matters.
Tips for New Paddlers:
Wear comfortable, stretchy clothes and bring a change of clothing in case you get wet or splashed.
Bring a water bottle.
Accessible washrooms on-site.
Although all ability levels are welcome, you must be comfortable with being on the water and be able to right the boat, if necessary.
Standard club issue personal floatation devices (PFD) are provided but if you have one please bring it along.
Club paddles are available for use.
