  • Meet: 6:00pm sharp at Queens Landing Boathouse and Environmental Center, directions are here.

  • What to wear and bring

Dress to get wet, and remember to bring water and a snack.   Please no jeans or other heavy cotton clothing.

NOTE: We will be offering an Intermediate Assessment on Thursday for those who are ready.  The assessment includes reviewing the intermediate skills here:
