Additional Information
Come join us for a day paddle on Valens Lake where we will practice many of the fundamental paddle skills to get us ready for the trips and lessons upcoming in the year. Several of the Padddle Committee members will be present to share tips and tricks with anyone interested. At the end of the session we will practice our wet exits, assisted, and unassisted re-entries so you can check that off for the season.
