Interested in leading sea trips for our club but could use a little guidance? WKC is putting together a 2014 trip leading program just for you! We’ll run you through a series of one-day classroom and on-water sessions throughout the year, covering topics such as leadership & risk management, tides & currents, navigation, rescues & recoveries, and general trip planning. You’ll also be teamed up with a current WKC trip leader, to assist with the planning and execution of several of your own club trips in 2014.
Training will begin with a leadership class taught (in a classroom) by Leon Somme of Body Boat Blade on March 8. Class fee is $ 50 for members, $75 for non-members. Space is limited to 12. On March 9 we will head out on the water to apply what you learned.
Please contact Dave Ortland (president@washingtonkayakclub.org) for additional details, class dates, and to sign up!
