Safety is Everyone’s Responsibility!

Team members are expected to participate in a “mock capsize” to practice the correct and safe procedures during this type of situation should it occur.  

Life jackets will be checked for proper fit and everyone should practice swimming with their life jackets to be sure of the proper fit. 

At present, we have two pool sessions booked and would encourage everyone to make a concerted effort to attend one of these sessions.  

Paddlers are expected to do the safety training, especially if it has been more than 5 years since their last safety session.

We will meet in the deep-end dive tank area.

What to wear:

Summer paddling clothes and not bathing suits (may be worn underneath) and bring your own PFDs.
