If everybody could print a copy and post the flier at work, the Gym etc that would be great. As this workshop is of the most value to people that are new to kayaking that won't know to check the website.

I've posted some fliers at the Lyden pool, North Shore Mall EMS, The Harvard Square EMS on Brattle Street, Asked for approval to post them at the Liberty Tree Mall Dick's Sporting Goods & Sports Authority, and someone beat me to posting them at REI.

I'll try to bring some to upcoming pool sessions for the lobbys to catch Y-goers who might see us in action and be interested...

More ideas are welcome! Help us cover more ground! :) Lets help get newbies started on the right foot! ...Nothings more frustrating than learning you've bought the wrong equipment for the type of paddling you are interested in!

I've now also got them posted in the lobby of the Beverly YMCA ... They turned out to be handy when a woman in the lockeroom asked about what we were doing with all the gear!

...and also North Shore Kayak in Rockport...

We have 19 participants who have RSVP'd. Still can handle more. Even a few excited last-minute new paddlers who show up unannounced would be welcome although RSVPing through Friday evening would be preferred.
