I am curious about how many tripper folk have past or present paddling club experience?
I am in the latter group, having once been an active member of two local clubs. At one time I led trips for both, and cherry picked a few folks I still paddle with via those outings.
Both clubs were more whitewater oriented than my usual persuasions, but both had cruise schedules that ranged from novice float trips to advanced whitewater, including multi-day trips. Each also offered a range of paddling and rescue classes, and winter season seminars and presentations. And membership was inexpensive - $10-$15 annually.
Dang, I’m beginning to wonder why I dropped those memberships. I think I just kind of drifted away and forgot to renew.
Who is still club-active, and why?
Or why not.
