This is a mentored paddle for Susan Wilson.  It's an easy pace, beginner's welcome paddle.  It's a good chance for folks to practice cold water rescues, re-entries, and rolls.  This is a challenge by choice,  so feel free to take a snack break and watch others if you prefer.

This event was rescheduled from February 8th.  The previously registered paddlers will be given priority on sign up.
