Wednesday Night Exercise Kayaking

This is a free event for all Kayak Academy alumni, Mountaineers kayakers, WKC and WWTA members.

Come paddle in the dark with Kayak Academy and friends on Lake Sammamish. It's a great way to stay in shape for your weekend adventures as well as general fitness and meet other year around kayakers.

Bring and headlamp and/or flashlight and your own sea kayak and wet suit or dry suit (or call ahead to reserve rental equipment to be picked up at the lake).

Beginners need prior safety training - this isn't a guided tour or lesson.

Mark your calendar for every Wednesday and plan to come often. Every Wednesday night from 6:30pm - 8:00pm through Oct.

Prerequisites: Sea kayak safety training (i.e. our SK101 or higher)

Location: Tibbitts Beach, L. Sammamish State Park (see map below). Look for the Issaquah Paddle Sports shed.
Tuition: Free if you have your own equipment. Call ahead if you need to rent gear.
Instructor: KA Staff, volunteers, and sometimes George and Barb Gronseth

We have special reduced rental rates for these practice sessions, but you must call ahead to reserve rentals.
