The New Season has started

Most program dates have been posted. Throughout the season additional dates will be added. New instructional program are being planned to train to the new BCU Star syllabus which has started to roll out in North America. New kayaks and other equipment have started to arrive.

With the continued move to the internet we are changing how we schedule events. Just a couple of years ago we sent our brochure to the printer in February and the full year calendar was set in stone. Last year we were a bit more flexible adding programs as the season progressed. This year the calendar will be even more fluid as our staff and visiting coaches allow us to meet the demand of our clients. Keep an eye on the Upcoming Events and the calendars. We have some exciting new things in development.
