The Cornwall Recreational Whitewater Club

The last 2 weeks havew been a lot of fun meeting people in Valleyfield and in the area as we gear up for the 1st ever Seaway Valley WK Hometown Throwdown.
Last weekend and this week has seen me and the family out at the whitewater park in Valleyfield letting everyone who will listen know that on June 21st (not that far away now) we are having a mom and pop (John and Jane, or any number of other cute descriptions..) amateur Rodeo.
The response has been great from paddlers of all ages and skill levels. Lots of interest from folks everywhere.
We have hear a lot of people say ” but I am not that good” and our answer has been really consistent: “Do you like to kayak? Do you like to play? If so then you are as good as it takes to have fun with us on the 21st”, “Come out and have fun and learn a bit along the way too!”
So, we are forecasting an excellent turn out.
We are also hoping to see a lot of younger kids there. A solid cadet class would make my year!
My son is definitely competing and what do ya know, my Daughter Emily has stepped it up too. She will be entering too (It is starting to come together for her now and she should give her brother a run for his money in no time)
So everyone keeps on practicing and I will make a few more rounds to local clubs and businesses to get as many paddlers out as possible.
See you on the river,
