Haverhill pool session

Pool sessions at the Haverhill High School for the 2025 winter season are available to paid members of NSPN for purchase in the Store. Cost is $30 for each session.  Pool sessions can only be purchased through the Store using PayPal or credit card .  If you have trouble with membership or purchasing a session, email [email protected]

We use the ACA club insurance program. You need to sign the online ACA Liability Waiver here.  If you are not an ACA member, you will need to pay the additional $10 ACA Event Fee for each session.  You can become an ACA member by signing up here and selecting North Shore Paddlers Network from the Paddle America Clubs drop-down list.  The annual membership fee is $40, which will be "paid back" in only four pool sessions or summer skills sessions, since there is no Event Fee for ACA members.  

These sessions are a great way to keep existing skills active over the cold winter months or work on new skills for the upcoming paddling season.  Although NSPN does not offer official instruction, many members are willing to offer whatever assistance they can while they are at the pool.  However, if you would like to pay for professional instruction, you can seek out an instructor directly, either from NSPN members (some of who are actually certified!) or from other professional instructors.  If the instructor will have a boat in the pool, they will need a pool session spot purchased.  If they are only going to instruct from the poolside, then they do not need a spot.  Regardless, all attendees (whether in the pool or instructing poolside) MUST have signed an online ACA Waiver and paid the $10 Event Fee if they are not an ACA member.

We cannot issue any refunds unless the pool facility closes due to inclement weather or other reasons. If you are unable to attend a pool session after purchase and would like to let someone else purchase the session from you, you must make those arrangements on your own. We will try to post a reminder for each session where you can look for someone to purchase your slot, or start a new posting if you choose.  They must have signed the online ACA waiver, and pay the $10 Event Fee if required.
