Posted February 2, 20214 yr Hi people, Let's beat both winter and the pandemic in one swoop, with some educational fun (that we can apply once we're able to get out and paddle again)! Next month, Bob and I are offering a set of 3 Saturday afternoon sessions over Zoom, aimed at improving paddlers’ ability to research, plan and execute paddling trips in typical local areas used by the club, up to NSPN Level 3. No prior experience is needed — novice paddlers are more than welcome, this course is for you! The class is built around an online workbook of exercises. Lecture and presentation will be kept to a minimum. Wherever possible, material will be introduced in the context of solving real-world problems. Some exercises will be done online with the instructors, some in student breakout sessions or “pods”, and some offline. As a culminating exercise, small groups students will plan one or more “fantasy” paddles given a set of expected weather conditions, and present their plans to the class for critique. The calendar entry and more complete information on registration and course content can be found by clicking the link box below. I hope to see you there. --J Edited February 2, 20214 yr by Joseph Berkovitz Change trip level to 3
February 2, 20214 yr Author Note the initiaL posting referred to “trips up to L2” but I should have said “up to L3”. The material is valuable for any level though, really.
