Registration

Member Registration
Active club members, including kayaking professional and lifetime. Provisional acceptance, pending approval by the trip organizer if this is a paddle"

This trip is limited to members with a wet exit certification (except for level 1 trips when the paddler is not using a spray skirt....if the paddler is wearing a spray skirt on a level 1 paddle, the Wet Exit Certification is REQUIRED). To successfully register you will need to sign into your OOPS member account, and your account will need to be a member of the "Wet Exit Certified" group if you intend to wear a spray skirt. Your acceptance is conditional on approval by the Organizer, who may contact you with questions about your skills and equipment. If the measured water temperature is different enough from that listed below to warrant a change in required immersion protection, the Organizer will contact all participants and the Trips Board member with the update at least a day before the trip.

Activity Title: Early Morning Meditative Paddle
Date of Activity: 7/10/2021
Narrative: Soak up the beauty of the early morning on Cleawox Lake, savoring mist rising from the water, osprey fishing for breakfast, and the sun coming up! We will launch at the boat ramp at Honeyman State Park, paddle in the warm lake water, making a right turn up the narrow lake for 1 1/2 miles, and return by breakfast time. You may use your time to perfect your forward stroke, quietly savor nature's sights and sounds, and return feeling refreshed and ready for the day. This is a super trip for morning people and those that can be ready at 6:30. It will be fun!
