Kayak Practice – pool time! As a place to practice for the open water season, a pool is a good substitute to the harsh conditions involved with boating in the winter. It also works well to refine skills under a controlled environment rather than out on a river itself. Cedar Rapids Parks and Recreation and Linn County Conservation are teaming up to invite you and to promote kayaking with pool time at Bender Pool in Cedar Rapids, located at 940 14th Ave SE. Drop-in pool sessions for kayakers are being offered from 4:30-6:30 pm on the following Sundays: January 4, February 1, and March 1. The fee is $10 per person per session at the door. Minimum age is 10 years, and everyone will be required to be in swimwear and a lifejacket. A helmet is required for those practicing rolls. Youth must be supervised by an adult.
For additional details check in the upcoming newsletter as well as on our Facebook Page. The fee is $10 per person per time at the door.
