Announcements & Special Events

           Palmetto Paddlers has arranged to have ACA whitewater kayaking Instructor Trainer Educator Larry Ausley conduct a River Trip Leaders Training Clinic next month on the Saluda River. It will include four hours of classroom training the evening of Oct. 28 and eight hours of river time Oct. 29.  The class is open to both whitewater and flat water boaters. Larry is a highly regarded Instructor Trainer in whitewater kayaking, river safety and rescue and coastal kayaking. 
 
           Best of all, the club is picking up most of the cost of the course, so the price for PP members is just $20. That’s an incredible bargain to improve your knowledge and abilities in trip planning, equipment and supplies planning, group management on the river, incident prevention and reaction and deep-water and river rescues.
 
           Taking this course will improve your paddling skills and make your trips better, safer and more fun. And did I mention it’s ONLY $20!!!
 
           If you have coordinated a club trip or think you might want to lead a trip in the future, sign up today!!! There are only 10 spots available in the class. PP members get first dibs, but in the coming weeks, we’ll open it up to non-members at a cost of $30. Email Les Case at This email address is being protected from spambots.
