Kayaking & Canoeing! 101
There is an awesome beginners' event coming up this Saturday state-wide: the ACA's "Kayaking & Canoeing! 101". Sites are up all over the state if this sounds like a good time but you live far from the Triangle. $15 a person, just to cover insurance. Jason Jones, the CCC President, will be instructing at Jordan Lake in canoeing along with Wayne Jones and David Johnson. Wayne and David are ready for the kayaking students. Whether you're a kayaker wanting to come try a single blade, or a canoeist who is losing their way - we'd love to see you (kidding). You can register here:

All participants in any Carolina Canoe Club (CCC) trip do so as common adventurers. The CCC or its individual members may coordinate paddling trips but no one is considered leader of a trip. As common adventurers, all participants take the responsibility for making their own decisions including, but not limited to, whether it is safe for them to participate on any particular water body, what equipment they need and use, the routes they may choose to paddle, whether their skill levels and abilities are adequate for the activity or whether climate and water conditions are appropriate for their participation. Participants are exclusively responsible for their own safety.
Individual coordinators for all CCC activities set requirements per their sole discretion. The CCC does not necessarily endorse or approve requirements set by coordinators.
