Kayak Weekend

The weekend will include an entry-level America Canoe Association Introduction to kayaking course on day one along with an ACA Flatwater Safety and Rescue course on day two. The topics covered in the intro course include safety, paddling environment, equipment, strokes, maneuvers, wet exits, and assisted rescue techniques. Optional activities include an orientation to kayak/canoe camping equipment, and tips. The participants will get wet as this is a hands on course. All participants should possess basic swim skills and be comfortable on, in and around the water. This course is open to adults 18+. All kayaks and equipment will be provided. Additional details and logistics will be given to all registered participants. For more information and registration, please contact Emily Borcz at eborcz@pa.gov or call 724-932-3142 ext 106.
