Youth Development Team Summer Season 2022

• July registration
• August registration

Is your son/daughter ready to take their kayaking to the next level? Does she/he/they want to have fun outside on the water and learn new skills? The goals of for group are to have fun!, improve kayak skills and on-water safety awareness, to paddle beautiful rivers and to take on the challenge of some informal slalom races. Paddling slalom gates is an excellent way to improve paddling skills for whitewater paddling, and a great choice even for those youth not inclined to competitive sports.

This program includes 1 lesson/ week on flatwater (Cultus Lake or flatwater slalom gates) and 1 river run (weather, river level and skills dependent).

Our seasonal Youth Development Team program Summer season runs July & August. Target age range 8-16 years! This is a year round program with seasonal sign-up. 

Schedule: starts July 6th and runs Wednesday and Saturday.
