Paddle Pals Programs
Our half and full day programs offers the paddler the opportunity to learn and become comfortable with the strokes needed to stabilize, turn and steer their canoe in flat or moving water. These programs are commonly booked for families or groups interested in an introduction to canoeing or wanting to improve their paddling technique. Day programs run upon request and instructor availability throughout the paddling season.
Each customized program we develop for your group or organization will focus on skill development, personal growth, communication, leadership development and confidence building. We welcome Scouts, Guides, Clubs, Classrooms and Camps.
