Paddle for the Kids: We will be paddling up to 4-5 hours on Saturday, March 22nd, to Thetis and Penelakut Islands. 

Please note! Location is weather-dependent and may change on very short notice.

This event is open to all members. Key reminders!

• Meet at the VCKC clubhouse at 8:00 am to sign in, pay your $5.00 gas money for the transportation of canoes, be assigned to a specific canoe and organize ride sharing. Please be ready to depart from the clubhouse no later than 8:30 am.
• Bring proper clothing - e.g., rubber boots or neoprene footwear, merino wool or synthetic quick drying underlayers, rain gear, waterproof gloves (rubber dish gloves work in a pinch) and a toque/hat. Bring an extra layer to put on during the lunch break to avoid getting chilled.
• Bring a complete change of clothes and extra layers in a drybag, just in case. No capsizes are expected (they never are), but we always prepare for the worst-case scenario. Safety first!
• Bring sufficient water/snacks for the day and a packed lunch (in your dry bag). A thermos of a warm drink/soup can be a welcome treat as part of your lunch.
• Ride sharing is encouraged. Those not driving should park vehicles on the side streets near the clubhouse rather than in the parking lot. No parking is permitted in the Il Greco restaurant parking lot. If you are ride-sharing, please help to cover the fuel expense of your driver.
• Most importantly - meet at VCKC at 8:00 am sharp!
