Sunday Morning Thetis Lake Paddle and Skills


Details
Let's enjoy a leisurely tour of Thetis Lake (Lower and Upper). From the Main Beach, we will make our way to Upper Thetis, and then stop to have a little break on our boards while we enjoy the sun on the lake, and dangle our feet in the water. Bring some snacks and water. After our break, we will paddle back to the main beach. The forecast calls for a high of 16 degrees C, so let's get out there and prepare to get wet while we practice some skills at the end of our paddle - anyone who's interested in learning and practicing various turning skills (sweep stroke, cross-bow stroke and step-back turns) is welcome to stay at the end. The water temperature is swimmable for some, others may prefer to wear a shorty wetsuit.
PFD and pealess whistle required per Transport Canada Water Safety regulations.
