This is a new camp that will allow adult family members to join their younger Camp Howard aged campers for a great time taking part in an activity that all ages will enjoy. Families provide their own transportation for each session. We will spend the first day at camp using the camps pool and pond to get comfortable with the kayaks in a very user friendly setting. During the three days, we will cover basic kayaking skills, and learn how to paddle safely in non-moving and  moving water. We have several tandem kayaks that can be utilized if any person feels unsure of their skills and wants the additional security of a very stable kayak and shared control. The next two days will be on-the-water sessions with paddling sessions that will be roughly 3-5 hours long. We will stop periodically to stretch and walk, and for one meal break each day. Participants will need to bring a lunch, snacks, and plenty of fluids such as water or sports drinks.
