Event Information

Description

Winds and weather are supposed to fairly calm Thursday, so it will be a nice day for a canoe lesson. This canoe lesson, distinct from our kayak lesson, teaches you how to work as a team to make a tandem canoe go where you want to go, and gives you the canoe lake rating needed to go on outing club canoe trips or to paddle on Lake Mendota.

We normally don't purposely capsize to practice rescues, but it's hard to keep your feet dry in a canoe, so wear some kind of footwear that stays on and can get wet such as Tevas/sport sandals or sneakers.

If you want to just come to practive what you learned in a previous lesson, you are also welcome to join in.  We will meet by Hoofer boathouse on the Memorial Union lakefront at 17:45.
