Island Rec- Kayak Essential Skills Clinic

Posted September 5, 2018 at 5:46 am by

This clinic is about taking the skills learned from our Essential Skills I Kayak Clinic and putting them into practice in open water. We’ll learn strategies for launching from a beach or dock, how to handle various tidal conditions, practice compass use and navigation, paddling techniques, group kayaking, how to tow and raft, and on-water self-rescue work!

You must have your own kayak and equipment for this clinic and it is recommended that you have taken the Essentials Skills Clinic I or other similar class. A wetsuit or dry suit are recommended. Please note this clinic does not offer certification. This program is for ages 16 and up and will take place at Jackson Beach on Saturday, September 29th from 10:00 am to 3:30 pm. Early registration, which is until September 20th, is $56; the registration fee is $66 thereafter.

For more information and registration please visit our website, www.islandrec.org, call the office at 360-378-4953, or come in to our office M-F between 11am-5pm.
