rylevine Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 SALEM SOUND SWIM AND FIN RACE: http://www.swimandfin.org/Safety kayakers are needed to monitor swimming races in Salem Harbor. NSPN has a tradition of providing volunteers for this event.Safety kayakers activities include:1. patrol a zone2. identify tired, distressed or disabled swimmers3. signal a rescue boat4. offer the swimmer support5. carry AND use a hand-held radio (we may have a _limited_ number of radios available but kayakers with their own radios are best)Safety kayakers in two groups this year, early or late, meeting to organize at 7:30am or 8:30am. All races end at 12:30. Post here or PM me for more details and to RSVP. Proceeds to benefit Salem Sound Coastwatch.Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rylevine Posted August 18, 2014 Author Share Posted August 18, 2014 Katherine,This year the agenda is a little different. There is a need for 4 kayakers on an earlier shift for swimmers during a warm up period (meeting 7:30 at Forest River Park), and about 12 kayakers on a later shift for the races (meeting 8:30 at the Palmers Cove Yacht Club). Both Forest River Park and the PCYC are in Salem. The event is Saturday, August 23, 2014 at the Forest River Park.Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
