Terrific Tuesday Evening Paddle is the highlight of the week

EDIT -- NOTE THAT AS OF 23 MARCH MOST TUESDAY PRACTICES WILL BE CANCELED AND THOSE TUESDAY PRACTICES THAT ARE HELD, IF ANY, MAY TAKE PLACE IN CANOES DURING THIS PHASE OF THE PANDEMIC. IF WE DO GET THE ABILITY TO TAKE OUT A DRAGON BOAT IT WILL BE WITH SPECIAL PROTOCOLS TO HELP REDUCE RISK. AS ALWAYS, PLEASE DO NOT MAKE THE TRIP WITHOUT CONFIRMING BY VOICE OR TEXT THAT THE PRACTICE IS ON.

WEATHER AND OTHER FACTORS CAN ALSO BE AN ISSUE - PLEASE TEXT FOR STATUS OF MEET-UP. CONTACT NUMBERS BELOW*

COME TRY IT FOR WITHOUT OBLIGATION!!! Blazing Paddles is a coed paddling team started by Captain Will Murphy in 2000. We have paddlers from Miami to Port St. Lucie. We compete in dragon boat racing, canoe racing and other water sports, and members participate in all manner of outdoor adventures. No experience necessary. Just a good attitude, clothes and shoes that can get wet and at least 20 ounces of water or a sports drink in a plastic bottle. Please note that the meet up lasts between 1:15-1:30 on the water, plus time to launch and to get the boat and gear rinsed and stored. If you have to be back at a certain time, please let us know beforehand.

Note that weather, races and other factors sometimes lead us to change the schedule so *PLEASE CONFIRM BEFORE YOU COME. ALSO SEATS ARE LIMITED SO PLEASE TRY TO SHOW UP IF YOU RSVP. *HAVE FUN AND HOPE TO SEE YOU ON THE DRAGON BOAT

Please do not assume that no one is coming if you don't see folks signed up here (or that they are if they are signed up). Members use other tools to sign up for practices. Always call first to find out if practice is on. PLEASE CALL BEFORE COMING TO CONFIRM PRACTICE IS ON. (We are emphasizing it because we do not want you to make the trip for nothing. We want you to have fun from the beginning.)

For each of your first three practices -- recommended minimum donation is $10 (to SOAR, the 501c3 charity that owns the boats).

If you decide you want to join, we will send you the paperwork. Annual dues are $300 but substantial discounts are available for early payment, and many members get credits over the course of the year for helping out.
