Monday Night Paddling Ends for the Season

By Kim Greiner

Monday Night Paddling was well-attended from May to September at Kiwanis Park. A faithful number of SWC/NNYP members assisted several newbies with safety, boarding and exiting their watercrafts, as well as instruction to gain skills and enhance their paddling experience. Some new paddlers brought their own vessels. One even had a fold up/snap together kayak. Very cool! For those who did not have access, Ed and Kim brought a trailer load of boats, paddles, and PFDs each week. We are most proud of the accomplishments of one family and a mother-daughter team. Of course, in true SWC style, we enjoyed camaraderie and snacks afterwards. I hope more members will join us next year for an evening of fun!
