I should add we need a minimum of 5 particpants or this will be cancelled.

A greenland paddle provides an inexpensive alternative to the common "spoon" with superior flotation and ruggedness. If you stay after class Brian may provide pointers on extracting a kayak from a field of ice. The guy has spent his time putting together many valuable "how tos", I think you'll find the time worthwhile once the blisters have healed.

bumping up on the boards.... great opportunity!! Limited spots left!
