From time to time we travel to participate in events conducted by other paddling clubs. This is great fun and broadens our competetive experience. Check out our online calendar.
Note: We provide Google Earth links (GELs) for the free Google Earth program. You don't have to use them but they are another useful way to provide geographic locations and supplemental information in a fascinating format. If you've never seen it, you'll be amazed. You can download Google Earth here. Just a side note, GELs is not an official term for links that provide info in the Google Earth format. It's just something the webmaster made up to save from typing "Google Earth link" repeatedly.
