School Canoe And Kayak Safety Program

Age: 9-18 Years

The Canoe And Kayak Safety Program is a fun-oriented course designed to teach Elementary and High School students (as well as community groups) basic boating skills and recreational water safety.

The students will see nature at its best with beavers, eagles, loons, and fish on a calm lake with fresh air. Each child will take with them an appreciation of the outdoors and participate in a sport that is easy and fun for everyone.

This program is designed to provide school groups with new activities within the B.C. School Physical Education curriculum as well as being a popular end-of-the-year field trip activity for all grades.

On the day of the session, please bring in a completed CKBC Insurance Form for each student.

Learn with RCKC and have a great time!
