Hey Reindeer!
If you leave the WKC social early, you should come paddle with me on the Sky. The other group might be gone by then, but we can paddle up and down the river until it gets dark. :) It would be good to see you again!
And, to further the effort of "joining nations," a just got my WKC October Bulletin in the mail and saw something that might be of interest to the PP folks. At the Oct. 24 General Meeting, Peggy Protz will be teaching a short class on Finding Flexibility: Improving Movement for More Efficient Paddling.
Here are the details: Fri., Oct. 24, 7:00pm, REI Flagship, Seattle
