Downeast Sea Kayaking Symposium

Post by Mel Rice »

Hi All,
Pat has graciously given me permission to post this here. Hope to see you up in beautiful coastal Maine! 8)
Registration is now open for the 5th Annual Downeast Sea Kayaking Symposium !

Dates: Friday, Sept. 10 through Monday, Sept. 13.
Location: Mount Desert Island, Maine

New This Year: We're mixing it up this year, offering new classes (along with the usual favorites) and dividing them into series based on skill level and interest: Fundamental Skills; Beyond the Basics; Masters Series; BCU Series; and Just for Fun. The class offerings cover everything from strokes, safety and rescue, rolling, and Greeland skills to navigation and incident management, plus work among rocks and in tidal currents for paddlers of all skill levels -- from brand new paddler to highly experinced kayakers. Check out class descriptions and the symposium schedule at www.carpediemkayaking.com/symposium .

The Masters Series is for experienced and trained paddlers looking to push the performance envelope even further -- much further. If you feel you qualify, please call us, as enrollment in these courses will be limited, with prior approval required.

Coaches: We've got many coaches from previous years returning including John Carmody and Steve Maynard, plus new coaches including Nigel Robinson from Wales.

Cost: Cost for 4 days of classes is $550 for those who sign up by July 15 & $600 after that.

Visit our website or call us at 207-669-2338 for more information or to sign up. We look forward to seeing you on the water!
