Leader: Eric Oberhart

Event Information

Description
Join me for an evening of sublime paddling on the mighty Wisconsin River. We'll be working on skills at the Prairie Du Sac Dam, 30 minutes from Madison. 

Sac is big, pushy water with low consequences for swimming. An excellent place to learn the basics of peeling out and ferrying, as well as try some basic playboating moves.

Required rating will be a kayak lake lesson and valid swim test. 
Required gear: 
-Swim appropriate clothing (NO COTTON FABRIC)
-Footwear that you can wear inside your kayak
-Towel and change of clothes
-Water bottle or similar

Meet at the boathouse at 4:30 to gather gear. We should be leaving Madison no later than 5:00. I will open this trip to additional participants if additional safety boaters sign up.
