Our Group



Welcome Paddlin' Chix! Our group of women, who enjoy kayaking, canoeing and rafting, come from diverse backgrounds and share not only experiences, but a unique bond as well. As we explore new rivers, ocean and lake places to take our watercraft, we want to provide a safe venue where women can come and connect with other women, building what we hope will be lasting friendships.

This is our spot to centralize and journal our doings. We can view planned trips, where to shop for equipment, training topics, what to bring on paddle trips, share pictures, stories and more! As we continue to build this place, I hope that it will become an excellent resource for us as we look forward to our many paddle trips together.

Let's Get Started!

I'm going to work on getting at least one new post a week and make a habit of making this blog of ours a bonafide work horse of information.  I also will work on being brief- I love words:)  and concise.  So, two items come to mind today. One-Mary's email to let you know when the deposit and forms are due to reserve our San Juan trip: February 25 to her.  and two, for kicks, a comment about the Animal Planet episode I happened to watch the other night.  It was the "I Shouldn't Be Alive" series and featured a couple of kayaking guys in the San Juan straits.  Long story short, it was a good reminder  to be prepared for any kayaking trip, or venture by knowing what you're getting into. Gather information, equipment and clothing, and be physically ready.  One of the issues with these guys was  they were always challenging each other and missed being honest about the extent of experience....and that's how their story made the show.  It was a good thing that he could swim--and well!  So, starting today, I WILL get in at least a half hour walk, and plan on getting back in the pool SOON!
