Register today for our Youth Outrigger Canoe Summer Camp!
This camp consists of both dry land games which develop fundamental movement skills, as well as paddling in the Outrigger Canoe (OC6) which will be on beautiful False Creek and weather permitting in English Bay in a safe and fun environment. The camps are taught by our NCCP Certified coaches and consist of a lot of fun games and activities both on the water and off.
Did you know that an outrigger canoe (OC6) holds 6 paddlers, and paddlers paddle on both sides switching about every 8-12 strokes? Each seat has its own unique role to play within the canoe from the stroke to the steers, which creates a really exciting and fun dynamic within the boat! Do you think you’re up for the challenge to experience what each seat’s role is, learn the stroke technique, make new friends, and be part of a fun OC6 obstacle race to put everything you’ve learned to the test at the end of the camp?!
