Outdoor paddling lessons will resume in May 2010.

It's important to know what to do out on the water. We are ACA-certified instructors, and our mission is to teach you how to enjoy your boat safely. While you learn the mechanics of paddling, you'll get to try different boats to see how well each fits you. Class size is kept small so advanced registration is required.
