Are you a procrastinating Basic Class student needing a student paddle to graduate? This could be your last chance!
Come join us on a paddle from historic Manchester to Blake Island and Yukon Harbor. This paddle will meet all the requirements of a Tacoma chapter student paddle, including rescues. Immersion wear is required. If you are a newer paddler, you are also welcome, but students get priority.
