Special Olympics - RED

$200.00

Limited Space Available

THURSDAYS 4:45pm - 6:00pm   July 3 - August 21 (8 weeks)  $200

This program is perfect for returning paddlers who have a need for speed!  Paddlers will be introduced to increasingly challenging boats, and will develop balance and paddling technique. Paddlers in Pro Kayaks should expect to spend some training time in a K-2 this season (twice the fun, and triple the racing opportunities!).  We will use practice races to celebrate improvements and prepare paddlers for regattas. (Race fees and transportation are not included in program registration.)  Racing is not mandatory ... but it's so much fun! Meet and compete with Special Olympians from other Clubs in Ontario.  

* Any paddlers capable of steering independently and holding position on a starting line are eligible to compete in a regatta.
