About this event
I will offer training in basic paddle strokes. I will have a lesson plan, but will be happy to address any strokes participants want to work on. Emphasis will be L1 level. I will not work on open or closed cockpit wet exits because this site does not have suitable location for doing it. No spray skirts required, but recommended if you can do a wet exit with one on. If you cannot do an open cockpit wet exit,
please tell me in advance!
The park has parking close to the launch ramp and a restroom house suitable for changing, if you wish.
Main hazard is chiefly heat. I will monitor the weather for thunderstorms as we get closer to the time. Dress for both heat and immersion.
Alligators do live in the area, including some places we may go for practice, depending on wind conditions. I am not aware that they constitute a real hazard if left alone, but if you have concerns please check with me. I do not plan any swimming.
