What we're about
Welcome to the Kayak & Canoe Club of New York (KCCNY)! KCCNY is one of the largest whitewater clubs in the East. Despite our name, the club serves New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut, in addition to New York, where we formed in 1959. KCCNY features a whitewater paddling program with novice, intermediate, or expert trips planned for each weekend of the paddling season (most within a 3-hour drive from NYC).
This meetup is to encourage people in NYC (and surrounding areas) to try out the sport of white water kayaking, start a community of current white water kayakers, and create more opportunities to get on the water!
