Have you purchased a new kayak? Would you like some education to help you to become a better, more skilled paddler? The backwaters at Pinicon Ridge Park are a great place to practice and learn about open water kayaking, but in a controlled backwater setting, rather than out on a river channel, where current would need to be addressed. Join ACA certified kayak instructors as we cover Personal Flotation Devices (PFD), equipment, river etiquette, where to paddle and safety. We will practice basic strokes, graceful entry and exit of a kayak and more. This session should be helpful to even experienced paddlers but is ideal for those just getting their feet wet. Participants must provide their own gear, boats, paddles, etc. Pre-registration required. Join us near the Watercraft Rental Building within the park.

Air rifles are safe, universal and fun, making them the go-to tool to introduce youth and adults to the sport of target shooting. SAR uses units of study, teacher training, universal whistle commands, positive language, and standardized equipment to facilitate an introduction to the lifetime sport of target shooting to school-aged youth in grades 4 through 12. The SAR program uses a series of lessons to build up to the first shots one can take at 10 meters. In this exploratory meeting, we will go through the first 4 lessons, which lead up to lesson 5 when shooting can begin. If you wish to join in on shooting the air rifles in future programs - join us to learn more and study/pass these first lessons. Registration is limited. Additional programs will be offered to those completing these first 4 lessons in the future.
