Kudos to ORR coach Tyler Lawlor for all his efforts at Team Trials. And to the many volunteers too!

Huge shoutout to all the paddlers who showed up in force at the Minden Whitewater Preserve this weekend for the Slalom Team Trials! 🛶💪

The turnout was incredible, and seeing so much local talent taking on the Gull River was a blast. Whether you were chasing a spot on the national team or just pushing your limits, you represented Ontario well.

Huge thanks to the volunteers and officials for making it happen!

Looks like the pumphouse camera has already stopped working due to a low battery! It will take a few days to get around to retrieving and recharging.

Pumphouse camera back up and running.

ORR Whitewater Kayaking Camps:

1) (Young) Kids Small Group Size L1/FUNdamentals 4 day camp Aug 25-28.
The normal age range for our Kids Camps is 10-13, but for this particular camp, we've got a couple of 9 year olds, from the Minnows/Ripples program joining. So we're happy to include more young children in this camp. The price is $310

2) Level 2 Camp (currently with a planned river run on the Friday), Aug 25-29

3) Level 2 Friday only Aug 29 River Run, for former Level 2 campers. It won't show on our website camps table as an option, but a couple of spots are now listed on the Zone4 registration form for this option, and we may be able to take more. A great way to end the summer, before heading back to school!

4) Repeat L1 or L2 half-days @ $35/half-day. Please see the registration form for options and send an email to clarify/specify what you would like and when.
