canoeing: learn solo canadian style canoe strokes - June 26, 2014

Learn the basics of solo Canadian style canoeing. This class is for those who have achieved a bit of confidence in their paddling and want to increase their knowledge. We will start with a discussion about the key aspects of a canoe and the forces at play while paddling. Then we will hop into our boats and start learning the various strokes. A word of caution: Due to the nature of some of these strokes it is very easy to turn your boat over so DRESS FOR A SWIM. Required equipment: canoe, paddle, PFD, bail bucket/pump, throw bag. Location: Bountiful Lake (Directions when you register).
