This camp is for both beginning and experienced paddlers—just bring an excitement for being on the water and a desire to learn. Campers will learn canoe strokes and skills, route planning, and the details of canoe camping. After honing skills and strokes on the first two days, we'll undertake a three day expedition on the Deerfield and Connecticut Rivers. We'll be camping overnight on our trip, carrying everything we will need in our canoes. Our experienced staff will ensure a fun and safe trip—come paddle with us!
