I will offer training in a few assisted and self-rescue techniques in quiet water.  Techniques will be those most useful to our paddling circumstances.  A later training day will review these techniques in rougher water.

I expect students to have boats with spray skirts and to be able to do wet exits with a spray skirt.

I would like to restrict participation to 5 students to each instructor.  Karl Brauer has signed up, and I consider him to be an instructor.  If more instructors wish to offer their services, please let me know.

I have registered Robert Krogman and Rebecca Matejowsky based on their earlier request, being out of town when trip open for registration.

The event will take place in Lake Woodlands

The park has parking close to the launch ramp and a restroom house suitable for changing, if you wish.

Main hazard is heat.  There may also be scullers (rowers), and fishermen.  Bring lots of water and dress appropriately.  I will monitor the weather for wind and thunderstorms as we get closer to the time.  Dress for both heat and immersion.  Woodlands Township tell me that the water quality is monitored continuously and no one is allowed to go on the lake if quality becomes unsafe.  I use the lake often, including for rolling and rescue practice.
