We're getting a lot of questions from newbies about the whole Canoecopia experience, so here's a few answers: we'll keep adding them as we get them.

New Question:"Do you record videos of speakers?"
Answer: We'd love to. There are companies that do this but we are not yet big enough (!) to make it worth their while, apparently. If I am completely wrong and you know someone who would do this, tell them to call us.

Question:"Where do I sign up for the speaker talks?"
Answer: You don't have to. They are first-come, first-seated presentations. Some of them will be standing room only, so plan accordingly if it's someone you really want to see.

Question: "Do I have to buy advance tickets?"
Answer: Nope, not unless you want to. It does speed up the entry process a bit but you are more than welcome to grab tickets at the door.

Question: "Do I have to know anything about canoes or kayaks to attend Canoecopia? Will I feel completely surrounded by experts and look like a dope?"
Answer: In a word, no. A BIG FAT HAIRY no. We like newbies. Your enthusiasm for the sport is infectious. While there are people there who are real experts (or at least know more than you), most of us have a lot more to learn. Please come, ask "dumb" questions, they're usually really good questions.

We'll keep posting these as you ask them. See you soon...
