Full details:

Paddlefest is Calgary's Annual Urban Paddling Party. 

You can take a whitewater kayaking clinic, brush up on boater safety, and try your bum in ten different canoes – not bad for one day at waters edge.

There's lots of fun and learning to be had on the water and off the water. If you are scared of the water, but think paddling looks fun, try some of our land clinics which may include topics like GPS navigation and bear safety. Or jump right in and sign up for some of our on-water clinics (beginner through advanced) in sea kayaking, whitewater kayaking and canoeing. Practice your skills and strokes in a safe and exciting environment with certified paddling instructors and folks with lots of knowledge. If you're thinking of purchasing your own boat, you can test over 150 of them to find just the right one.

We paddlers love what we do, and love sharing it more. So come join us for a positively perfect paddling party!
