For people who have minimal experience on moving water and/or have not had recent instruction. Three-hour evening classroom session with videos and lectures covering equipment, safety, river features and paddling techniques. Full day Saturday flat water session emphasizing wet exits, strokes, safety, self-rescues, and eskimo rolling. Full day Sunday session on a class 1-2 water river (tentatively the Tuckaseegee River). You must attend both the dry and flat water sessions to participate in the white water river portion of the course.

Date: June 18,19,20

Three day class with ACA certified instructors.

Price $90 for the class and includes a one year GCA membership.
Compare that to other places that charge between $250-$449 for the same ACA class.
This is even less that some one day starter classes!

If you don't have your own kayak, we can help you rent one from a local outfitter.

We will be splitting this to include a "Recreational Kayak" class. This is similar, to the "Whitewater Kayak" class, but will be held on much milder class 1 river.

Because there is a charge for this class, your space will not be confirmed until your payment is received. Refunds are available with 10 days notice, or if a replacement can be found.

    The initial response to this class has been outstanding! I didn't expect any response at all until the weather warmed up. With this strong a start, the class will sell out. Confirmation into the class will be sent to you based on when your registration form and check. Send in your check/registration form soon. http://www.gapaddle.com/ima... ***Be sure to make a note on the form that you are signing up for the Beginning Whitewater Kayak class.
