Presenters will be Scott Camlin, Suz Hutchinson, Liz Neumeier, and Peter Brady

For paddlers who plan on posting or participating in club paddling trips this year , you're encouraged to attend, as we cover all of the matters & procedures relative to paddling as a club. Most of the material is basically sound paddling as a group, also with club- specific material such as procedures for planning and posting a trip, the role of the trip initiator, float plans, etc. It's a fun time when club members have the opportunity to be together and review club paddling. Hope to see you there.

Common Adventure Model (CAM) Overview & NSPN CAM procedures

Working as a Group

Beach Briefings

Launching and Landing

Moving on the Water
