Learn basic paddling skills while kayaking on the Delaware Canal on Saturday, July 21 from 1 to 2:30 PM.

We’ll start out on land to familiarize ourselves with the parts of a kayak, basic paddling technique and water safety, then take to the water to try out what we’ve learned. This program is an ideal way to learn the skills you’ll need to kayak on your own or join us again for a longer paddle of the canal or river.

Kayaks, paddles, and personal flotation devices will be provided. Most are single kayaks, but one tandem kayak is available and may be requested ahead of time.

There is a $5 per person suggested donation for this program (ages 10 and up only). Space is limited, so please register in advance.

More details including meeting location will be emailed upon registration. Contact Maggie Wallner at mwallner@pa.gov for more information.
