Event Information

Description

Crossings in Sea Kayaks (SK1) Lesson

The Sea Kayaking Activity Group encompasses many of the skills similar to backpacking, but instead of having a trail to follow, the open waterways of Wisconsin's inland Lakes and the Great Lakes offer boundless opportunities for adventure and exploration. Trips can be as short as a day right out on Lake Mendota or can even be overnight trips to the Apostle Islands or Door County.

This lesson is for people who have already taken the SK0 lesson. In the SK1 we'll cover lake crossing procedures going to governor's island, continued practice of edging, review of the forward stroke, play games and do self-rescues.

We'll be paddling 6 miles. 

When: Sunday, July 23rd 9:00 am to 12:00 pm

What to Bring: Change of Clothes, Closed toed shoes, swim suit, sunscreen, water, eat breakfast before hand, snacks, hat, sunglasses, those positive vibes.

Where: Meet at the Triangle Dock by Hoofers. Please show up promptly
