										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Learn the skills to safely enjoy paddling bays, lakes, and marshes. Begin with a morning session that includes discussions of safety and equipment, and practice strokes and techniques for launching and landing.</p>
<p>In the afternoon, work on wet exits, assisted rescues, and self-rescue skills. Adjust the agenda to fit your interests. For example, after covering the basics, practice techniques for paddling in surf or rough water.</p>
<p>Benefit from safety gear and kayaks included. If you’re thinking of buying a kayak, this is your chance to try different options. If you already own a kayak, this course will prepare you to enjoy future challenges and adventures safely.</p>
<p>Enjoy a hands-on class, including swimming and climbing into half-sunk kayaks. Join a wildlife tour to practice the strokes and skills you’ve learned at no extra charge.</p>
