ACA Introduction To Whitewater Kayaking

Dates: May 3-7 2023 Cancelled. Please email us to be notified of future courses.

Location: Wolf River, Camp Gardener Dam, White Lake WI.

 

Learning foundational paddling skills correctly from the start will allow you to improve quickly with less chance of injury and bad habits. Your instructors will take you through a step-by-step learning progression leading to comfort with paddling up to class 2 whitewater on your own. (We may paddle up to easy class 3 in the course, with portages always an option:) See the ACA Whitewater Kayaking Course Outline​​ for details on course curriculum.

​

The river portion of this course will take place on the Wolf River, a National Scenic Waterway, with Lodging at Boy Scout Camp Gardner Dam, a heated bunkhouse with kitchens & showers. (Important at this chilly time of year.!)

​

We'll leave Cornucopia the afternoon of the 3rd, meet and greet that evening, and paddle the 4th-7th, returning the evening of the 7th. You may meet us at the venue if you prefer.
