Pete Button is attending River Kayak safety skills practice.

Part of the series of safety practice sessions. This one is for kayakers, aimed at grade 3 and above water. Will be covering practicing those skills to keep your self and your team safe. Doing the basics well and moving on to practice the skills the group feel they need to sharpen up. I know it is towards the end of the season, but we will be in the water a lot so don’t want it too cold, and it’s good prep for those summer trips. specific things I hope to cover this session.

Pete Button commented on Pete Button's event in LCC Intermediate River Trips
I think insufficient water to make a trip worth while and potentially now only two people paddling, so trip cancelled. -
