Winter Pool SessionsThere will be open boating and we will be offering classes in: Basic Strokes for Kayaking, Kayak Rolling and Freestyle/Play-Boating during January and February. Please check the Schedule or contact Ralph Pascale at rpascale@spendwood.com.White Water PaddlingLifejackets are required on all paddling trips. Dress appropriately for weather conditions. All trip leaders will screen prospective paddlers to be sure equipment and experience are appropriate for the trip. Misrepresentation or over estimation of skills is a common cause of whitewater accidents. Paddling skill should allow each boat to confidently eddy out regularly, thereby keeping the group together and allowing members to keep an eye out for each other. Boats should be appropriately outfitted for the level of water. Do you want to learn how to paddle white water? Call Chuck Wilkison (793-8041) for canoe or Horst deLorenzi (399-4615) for kayak. We can help you get started.Related LinksAmerican Whitewaters: http://www.americanwhitewater.org/content/River/state-summary/state/NY/ Northeast Paddlers Message Board: http://www.npmb.com/cms2/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?180013 Waterline Site Code List for New York: http://www.h2oline.com/Ny.asp
