Ready to paddle into adventure? Join us for a fun, beginner-friendly class where you'll learn the basics of canoeing-from paddling techniques to water safety. Whether you're new to the water or looking to build confidence, this is the perfect way to start your canoeing journey!
Girls who complete this course will earn the Canoe 1 (Introduction to Canoeing) training strip.
Participants will be assigned to cabins/tents by session. Chaperones will be assigned to available cabins/tents once all girls have been placed. Troops who have participants in different sessions will most likely be in separate sleeping units. Adults will be in separate cabins/tent from girls. Please note that adults signing up for this program will only participate with the boats if there is availability. The aquatics program is designed for girl scouts to grow their love for the outdoors. The adult fee does however inciude food and lodging for the weekend. Please feel free to bring busy work or a nice book to enjoy lakeside.
