BOW Offers Beginners Canoe and Kayak Instruction June 14 at Nimbus Flats, Rancho Cordova
Contact: Susan Herrgesell, BOW Program Coordinator, (916) 653-7448
The Department of Fish and Game's Becoming an Outdoors-Woman (BOW) program has teamed up with California Canoe and Kayak to provide the best in canoe and kayak instruction on Saturday, June 14, at Nimbus Flats in Rancho Cordova, east of Sacramento. Cost for the workshop is $50.
Instruction for Beginning Canoe and Kayak begins at 9 a.m. and will end around 4 p.m. Participants will learn the best methods to enter and exit the boats, and practice various strokes that will glide the crafts quickly through the water. California Canoe and Kayak will provide all equipment, including personal flotation devices or life vests.
Everyone is encouraged to bring sunglasses, sunscreen, and a hat or other sun-protective clothing. Sponsors will provide drinks and water, but participants should plan to provide their own sack lunches.
