Basic Paddle Clinic-
When- Sunday July 28th 2019

Where-12905 Sprucevale Rd, East Liverpool, OH 43920

(Beaver Creek State Park Primitive Campgrounds at Gretchen Lock)
(Sprucevale Rd also goes by County Rd 428)

GPS 40.70586, -80.580351

Time 11am

We are very lucky to have Ron Eells in the club. You may recognize him as the paddler in the blue whitewater kayak and gold helmet. Ron is a retired instructor from River Sport at Ohiopyle. He has an unlimited wealth of knowledge in Whitewater Kayaking, Canoeing, & Flat Water paddling. With those skills he knows many different type of paddling strokes for all types of water.
On this day Ron is willing to go over the basic strokes that every paddler should know and how to use them. We will also be flipping boats to get a sense of what it feels like to flip and how to recover.
This is the perfect time to ask Ron any questions on any strokes and style of paddling. I have really learned a lot from Ron in the past five or so years, and he has always been willing to talk to you, show you and help you learn how to be a better paddler.
I hope to see a good turn out as we all can learn something new or even freshen up on old information that might just keep us out of trouble.
