Volunteers needed for HCKC booth at Outdoor Explore in Lafayette

Tippecanoe Outdoor Explore is an event designed to introduce people to various outdoor activities.  Hours are 10 am to 4 pm Saturday June 10.

HCKC will have a booth set up for paddlesports at Outdoor Explore.  We could use a few volunteers to help with setup, running the booth, boat handling, on water support, and teardown.  We would be giving people a basic introduction to paddlesports.  You would not need to be present for the whole day.  Please contact Judy Thompson judy_thom@hotmail.com if you would like to help.

This is from Outdoor Explore write up:    "Suit-up with a personal floatation device (PFD) and prepare to learn about some of the basics of canoeing and kayaking with the experts from the Hoosier Canoe & Kayak Club. Basic safety information will be covered, along with overviews of simple paddle strokes, entering and exiting boats, boat gear and transport, where to paddle and how to find canoe/kayak liveries. Limited on-the-water sessions will be provided on the hour so be sure to arrive early to sign a waiver and register for a session. On-the-water participants must be 18 or older and able to swim; 12 if accompanied by an adult."

Located at Bicentennial Nature Area, 3033 Sagamore Parkway N., Lafayette, IN.
