PeterB Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Weather and Waves Workshop Rescheduled Saturday, February 13th now Saturday March 5 (pending confirmation) Meeting Room REI , Reading, MA, 1PM to 5PM THIS EVENT IS BEING RESCHEDULED John is no longer available on February 13, We will try to reschedule on Saturday March 5, and will post when confirmed. John Huth once again has volunteered his time to present a workshop for NSPN on Weather Wind and Waves and how these apply to sea kayaking. John's past presentations have been favorites of club members. John has a unique set of qualifications to present on this subject as he is both a physics professor/ lecturer and experienced sea kayaker. Johns experiences as a sea kayaker in turn have stimulated him to focus some of his academic research on kayak related aspects of the physical world, and he recently published a book on primitive navigation. "The Lost Art of Finding Our Way" This is a workshop you won't want to miss. Johns past courses have broadly covered issues of weather and waves: the approach of warm and cold fronts, how to read cloud formations, wind. , consider the air circulation around high and low pressure systems, and how to evaluate weather signs. The course will last approximately 2 and a half hours, with ample time for questions and breaks as needed." Members have come away from past workshops with a heightened understanding and appreciation of the physical forces that affect us while on the water: this session will help the sea kayaker evaluate and respond to rapidly changing local conditions through observations and decision making. The session will last from 1PM to 4 or 5PM and were all be ample opportunity for snacks, questions and participation. Please RSVP in the calendar posting for this session: REI has not-unlimited space and past workshops have been very well attended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaneC Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I'm confused. The topic heading says the lecture is Feb 13 and the body says March 13. Also it says to rsvp in the calander. I can't find it in the calander. So, what is the date and how do I rsvp. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BethS Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 (edited) Hi, Sounds great, it might be good to edit the text on the posting, even though it is on the correct calendar date it still SAYS March13, and that is what is showing on the upcoming events listing. Still a bit confusing, I signed up and it looked like I was signed up for March 13. Thanks for organizing this!
