SK0 lesson Tuesday October 6th at 4:30 pm. This will cover all the introductory skills to be able to take out the club's sea kayaks on Lake Mendota and beginner trips. You will need:
your kayak late rating and swim test
warm-while-wet clothing (I strongly recommend a wetsuit)
some type of water shoes
a towel and a dry change of clothes!
The lesson includes reminders of lake rules and paddling strokes, an introduction the specifics of a sea kayak, as well as an assisted rescue. That means you will be doing a wet exit and you will be swimming. I am strongly recommending a wetsuit, since the air temperature has dropped, and the lake will soon follow. If you don't have a wetsuit, the club does, so come 5-10 minutes early to pick one out.
Please reply by email to Valerie at vplaus@gmail.com. Updates to the lesson will be posted on the forum, and emailed out to those who reply.
