White Mountain Kayak
- July 12 - July 19, 2008
White Mountain Kayak camp is an exciting introduction to the world of whitewater paddling! The camp is excellent for students who have never kayaked but have a desire to begin kayaking, as well as for novice and intermediate boaters who want to enhance their river-running and playboating skills. We will focus on the fundamentals of kayaking and the art of reading and running rivers safely.
Our days will be “on the water” and our evenings will include relaxing on the beautiful 250 acre campus of the White Mountain School nestled in the heart of the White Mountain National Forest. Our campus offers endless trails for walking and mountain biking, a pond for swimming, an indoor rock gym, and many places to relax surrounded by the beauty of the mountains.
White Mountain Kayak camp uses industry standard American Canoe Association (ACA) Whitewater Kayak Course curriculum. The ACA Whitewater Kayak Course is a program emphasizing safety, enjoyment and skills acquisition for beginner through intermediate boaters and we will never exceed a 5:1 of experienced instructors to students. For more information about the ACA curriculum visit www.americancanoe.org.
