Participant Comments "I developed a new level of confidence. I never thought I could do this..." “The best part about the symposium was being in a community of paddlers in a supportive atmosphere. I prefer solo paddling and getting away from the crowds but I was touched deeply by the positive energy of so many leave-no-trace, silent sports people.” "It was a HUGE benefit. I now have a wonderful base of knowledge to grow from…a huge list of things I can go home and practice. Have a much better understanding of the sport as a whole."  "It didn't matter what your skill level was, the instructors never made me feel stupid." "I stretched myself because I knew I was in a safe environment." "I finally got a chance to do something I always wanted to do." 
"You introduced my husband to kayaking in a better way than I ever could have.""I can't imagine a facility with more to offer." “I feel like this weekend was made for me (a 45-year-old with extensive paddling time, but modest training.)” “As a beginner, it gave me a solid foundation from which to build. I can’t wait until next year!” 
“The most beneficial aspect of the weekend was becoming part of a paddling community and meeting people who inspire me to learn more and become more confident in the skills I have and have not learned.”“I have never been to Door County before and this was the perfect opportunity for me to explore and paddle in a beautiful spot.” “My biggest thrill…was sharing this experience with my 8-year-old granddaughter, who thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of this paddling experience—from realizing her capabilities, paddling in waves and playing games to meeting new friends and working together with other kid paddlers to transport boats and gear.” “This was totally awesome. Everyone should do this!” | | |
