Foote/Knight Classes

Twenty-one new and experienced paddlers were given one day paddling classes on Oyster Creek by Bob Foote and Karen Knight. On March 5th there was a solo class and on the 6th there was a tandem class at Lillian and Chet's creek-side home.

Watching them teach, you can see why Bob and Karen have earned the reputation they have as top-flight instructors. There were a variety of boats in each class as well as a broad range of paddling experience yet the instruction was tailored to each paddler.

Everyone I asked said they came away from the class with significantly improved paddling skills.

There was talk of a white-water class later this year and another class next year similar to this one.
