For these sessions we ask that you come with an open mind, willing to learn and have fun. Aside from the evening's Theme(s), activities can include client-helping-client skill practice sessions, testing different kayak equipment, and other special sessions organized by various staff members.

These evenings are for you to play games, work alone or with other clients, and to take part in impromptu staff-led sessions. Staff members will be coming to work on their own coaching and personal skills and might want to share that work with you. They are not available for private sessions.

This is not a replacement to a regular instructional program, but a way to practice what you have learned on previous lessons and for the staff to test out new ideas.
