ACA Smart Start Kayak Clinics


Hamiilton County Park District
Sponsored by the Hamilton County Park District

Join the Hamilton County Park District’s A.C.A. kayak instructors for a one-hour paddle skill training course on Lake Como at Coney Island with a certified American Canoe Association instructor.  All paddlers will learn boat maneuvering and basic paddle strokes during the session and receive an instructional book from the US Sail & Power Squadron about safe paddling.  This is an excellent opportunity to learn the correct way to paddle before the big event on Saturday. Sessions are limited to 10 paddlers per class.

Session times are as follows:

10:00 – Adult session

11:30 am – *Kid’s session

1:00 pm – *Kid’s session

2:30 pm – Adult session

4:00 pm – Adult session

All equipment will be provided and cost is only $10.00 per paddler.

*The 11:30 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. clinics are for kids ages 11 to 15; they must be accompanied by an adult who will remain on shore during the clinic.  Maximum of 10 paddlers per session.
