Become part of the infamous Kroka whitewater paddling crew! Upon arrival you will jump right in with your first kayaking lesson on Kroka’s pond. From here we begin a whitewater paddling progression as we practice rafting, kayaking, canoeing, stand up paddle boarding, and white water swimming. Our first expedition takes us downriver for four nights where we learn to work with the current and navigate strainers, eddies, and class I&II rapids. From here we will move to the Deerfield River where we establish a primitive campsite just a short walk from the river. Working in small groups, we will move through canoe and kayak clinics that focus on the individual needs and learning styles of each student. The program culminates with a run of the famous Class III Zoar Gap!  In addition to paddling, students develop appreciation for the vital role of water in the web of life and develop sound judgment and common sense inherent to adventure sports. This program is perfect preparation for our Paddlers Journey Up North.
