Our safety managers have booked us into Coquitlam’s City Centre Aquatic Centre on Friday, April 4, from 8:30–10:30 p.m.

Individual sessions will take about 30 mins each. Once you’ve done it, you can leave.

This safety-based clinic is mandatory for all new paddlers and anyone who has not taken the session in the past two years, should attend.

You will experience what it might be like to be thrown into the water if we were to capsize, how to throw the rope, and how to pull someone out of the water. We’ll also review PFD fitting.

Wear a bathing suit with light clothing overtop, or clothes you’d wear on the water during the summer, like your race jersey. Bring your PFD.

A Team Snap will be coming out in the coming weeks for you to sign up. If you have any questions please email Bob at uclwaltonb@hotmail.com or Donna at happycyclist@shaw.ca.
