No experience necessary. This course will introduce you to equipment, safety and boat handling. Class will be conducted on flatwater Saturday and a gentle river on Sunday. You may take just the first day but you can not skip the first day and attend the second day only.
Instruction is offered solo (1 person in a canoe) or tandem (2 people in a canoe). The class will begin Saturday morning at 8:30 a.m. at the Philadelphia Canoe Club, 4900 Ridge Avenue, Philadelphia. Class will be conducted on the creek next to the Philadelphia Canoe Club on Saturday. On Sunday we will travel to a lake (to be determined) in the NJ Pine Barrens (about 1 hour drive from Philadelphia). Instructors will carry the boats and equipment but will not provide rides.
You may take just the first day only.
Note: For your comfort, bring a kneeling mat or wear knee pads.
