Item Description
Enjoy an afternoon of paddling on the Kennebunk River with Susan Morris, marathon canoe racer and Seventh Grade math/Sixth grade science teacher. Students will take turns paddling the bow of a 30-pound carbon fiber racing canoe as it glides through the water, using a 10-ounce carbon fiber paddle. Students will learn river reading and racing skills, which will be helpful when paddling any canoe. Limit five people.
Trip will need to be taken at high tide and during warm weather. Both parties must agree on time, meeting at the Kennebunkport Marina. All students will rotate as Mrs. Morris' passenger. A boxed lunch, provided by The Port Bakery, will be enjoyed at Picnic Rock. Life jackets must be worn.
