Pre-registration required. Contact [email protected] to save your seat on Oct 24 and/or 31.
WHEN?
Come to one or all of our Saturday sessions in October, 8:00 - 9:30. Please arrive 5-10 minutes early for check in.
WHERE?
Meet at the flagpole in front of the RiverPlace Marina and RiverPlace Hotel (1510 S Harbor Way) for warmups and instructions at 8am before going down on the dock.
HOW?
~We’ll provide the paddle, life jacket and coaching.
~You wear workout gear like you’d wear to the gym with shoes or sandals you won’t mind getting wet. Choose tech fabric rather than cotton, if possible.
~Contact Nan at [email protected] to register.
~Sign our digital waiver forms.
~Plan time for parking and wayfinding. There is a fee for parking downtown on Saturday mornings - do you have the Parking Kitty app?
~Eat a little something for breakfast - your body needs fuel (30g of carbs) - and bring a water bottle.
WHY?
~Because you can! You’ll get bragging rights with family and friends for trying something new, too.
~Leave your problems on the dock for an engaging hour of laughing, learning, and paddling (and likely some splashing).
