Current and new volunteers, join us for a training session!
We'll paddle around our cove and possibly move into the cove next to us. Maybe we'll practice strokes and some drills, or just chill on the water :).
Please be mindful of others and arrive on time. Check the cut off time to arrive under the timeline. Let's get ready quickly to maximize our time on the water
Water temp is still cold. Wet/dry suits are highly encouraged but not required. Bring non cotton clothing and a change of clothes.
If you plan to do any rescue training or your first wet exit, then you must have cold water clothing.
