This is a paddling workout, you will learn many things about paddling the big canoes, but that is not the primary focus.&nbsp;</font></span></p> <p style="line-height: 31px;"><strong>These sessions run every Thursday night depending on weather and water levels from our Buena Vista Storage Sheds.</strong> Come early to help get the boats to the water, bring your own paddles, PFDs, water bottles, and any other paddling gear you may require.&nbsp; Paddlers will also be invited to join Darryl and our leaders for Monday evening sessions.</p> <p>We expect these sessions to commence Thursday evenings, 6:45 - 9:00 pm from April 22, and will run until late&nbsp; August.&nbsp; Once registered Darryl will forward a google spreadsheet so that you can report on which session you will be attending.... full attendance is the default.&nbsp;<strong>Coach Darryl will update on Monday locations once you have registered.</strong></p> <p><strong>The start date, and all subsequent sessions depend on appropriate river conditions &lt;600 cms</strong>.&nbsp;</p> <p>The club collects a $25/block fee this year to help with program costs (insurance fees are up), equipment maintenance and replacement (we have a new canoe for 2024).&nbsp; Club equipment is available for new paddlers for the first session or three, then participants are expected to provide their own life-jacket, and bent shaft paddle.&nbsp; If you've not paddled big canoes before it is best to get in a session or two before acquiring your own paddle.&nbsp; For each session a water bottle, rain gear, and dry clothes in a small dry bag are good to bring along.</p> <p><strong>You must be healthy to attend any sessions,</strong>&nbsp;please do a COVID/Flu/Cold self assessment before each paddling session. If you are not feeling well please do not come.</p> <p><strong>Registration will be available from April 2 to August 11. You may register for additional sessions at any time.</strong></p> <p><a href="https://ceyanacanoeclub.wildapricot.org/resources/Documents/Course%20change%20cancellation%20and%20refund%20policy%20draft%201.pdf"><strong>Course Change, Cancellation and Refund Policy</strong></a>&nbsp;-&nbsp;<font style="font-size: 16px;">Please read the policy on this link before completing any program registration that involves a payment.&nbsp; <strong>Given the extended nature of this program registration changes and cancellations are by email to Darryl.</strong><br></font></p> <p>Contact Darryl Tetz for more information and to be added to the attendance sheet:&nbsp;<a href="mailto:bigcanoe@ceyana.ca" target="_blank">bigcanoe@ceyana.ca</a></p> <p><img src="https://ceyanacanoeclub.wildapricot.org/resources/Pictures/Laurier%20Park%20boat%20launch.jpg" alt="" title="" border="0"><br></p> https://ceyanacanoeclub.wildapricot.org/event-6868820 https://ceyanacanoeclub.wildapricot.org/event-6868820
