I really enjoyed the clinic and have a couple of photos to post, but it seems there needs to be a trip category made first in the gallery. Is there a way I can do that or does someone with Admin, start that? I'll also try to attached them below on this foum. Thank again.

Thanks again for an amazing day! Once again I learned so much with y'all. In class I said that learning I can turn the boat just by edging was most impactful, but I think I want to revise my answer. I think maneuvering in general - to avoid obstacles, to ferry, and to set yourself up so that you can read a drop before you go through it - was my big takeaway. Really glad that Matt made us practice snaking through all those obstacles over and over.

I'm finally organizing my stuff and I found an orange Haul Master 12' cam strap in my IKEA bag. Dave or Randy, could this be yours? I don't see an RM on the strap. Now I'll have to paddle again so I can return it!

Big thank you to the club for another great event. Matt did a really nice job of teaching today - I learned a lot.

Dave, thanks for letting me try the white water canoe. Another great learning experience. Gratitude!

Hello, I am the friend Eleanor posted about. I would love to join in but would need to borrow a kayak and a paddle if at all possible. I know it is late notice, sorry about that, but if anyone could help it would be much appreciated! Thanks!

Hi, my friend who registered will need to (hopefully?!?) borrow a kayak. Is that possible? How to arrange? Sorry, I really struggle with this forum.

Hi Dave,

Could I take you up on your offer to use the canoe with the double paddle? Thanks.
