Open Pool for Open Canoeist

Open Pool for Open Boaters
A great way to get started with the sport of whitewater canoeing is to attend a pool session with a local paddling club.
Pools are a warm, clean, and friendly place for anyone looking to experience an open whitewater canoe.  The local paddling club I belong to, Rapids Riders, rents pool time at the Brooklyn Center Community Center.(Sundays-5-7, December through April)
Here's a link to the details

At pool sessions you can work on the stokes, the braces, and rolling a whitewater canoe.  The pool is a great place to meet paddlers that can give you tips on techniques and help you access the sport of whitewater canoeing.
I feel fortunate to have found a very welcoming group of paddlers,  my skills have greatly improved because of the advice I have received during open pool sessions.  

The Northern Open Canoe Access Project aims to connect flat-water paddlers with
the training,
the inspiration,
and the equipment to get you paddling whitewater rivers.

Let me know if you are interested in testing an open canoe,
