Youth Development Team Fall Season 2022

• Fall season registration
• September registration
• October registration
• November 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). Note that sessions may be rescheduled or replaced with a non-paddling alternative if the weather is inclement. Pool sessions will be scheduled once a week in November and will be included in the fees paid.

Our seasonal Youth Development Team program Fall season runs Sept-Nov. Target age range 8-16 years! This is a year round program with seasonal sign-up. 

Program fees

2 lessons per week monthly fee $160 OR register for all 3 months for $400

- A good fitting wetsuit is required for river runs. We can provide club splash tops.

- These lessons are scheduled with a maximum of 8 youth to one instructor (flatwater) and 4 youth with two instructors (on the river). To abide by Safe Sport Guidelines, we require one screened parent volunteer to stay and observe lessons if there is only 1 instructor present (we always provide 2 instructors for lessons on the river). We request one volunteer from each family to sign up for our volunteer program (email us for details).

- Club membership is valid until March 31st. You will receive a membership renewal notice in mid March. Program fees do not include membership cost.
