2019 PaddleALL

• Mondays - Once a week
• Wednesday - Once a week
• Mondays & Wednesdays - Twice a week

PaddleALL is a program for people with intellectual and disabilities. Participants paddle various water crafts such as recreational canoes and kayaks, dragon boats, and sprint race kayaks. PaddleALL provides a safe and inclusive environment where each participant can build skills and confidence on the water at their own pace. The focus is on having fun and being safe!

The program includes a safety orientation and instruction by experienced coaches. Each paddler spends time on the water with a paddling partner for 1:1 support. This program is ideal for ages 10 and older, but younger children may be accepted at the discretion of the PaddleALL coach.

Participants may be divided into two groups – recreation or development. The development group has greater focus on skill improvement. Both recreational and development participants can race at regattas, competing against other PaddleALL athletes if they wish. Please refer to the calendar on our website for regatta dates.

It is not a requirement for PaddleALL participants and families to do extra volunteer work for PRCC since we recognize that families are usually involved in the program itself. However, we are always looking for volunteers to assist with PRCC activities and welcome your involvement. Check out the "Jobs and Volunteering" page on our website for events and opportunities to get involved.
