UNM Students - have you ever wanted to try kayaking, but didn't know
where to start? Now here's your chance! The Whitewater Weekend Getaway
Adventure program filled up in 4 days(!!) with a waiting list. There
was so much interest in kayaking, that we have chartered a UNM Kayak
Club, and are making plans to get a few boats, raise some funds for a
few trips, and share some good times together. There will be no formal instruction...
at the event (hence the name 'free-for-all'), but we will be playing
some fun games like Kayak Polo and learning the basics to have fun that
night. A nominal $10 charge goes to cover pool rental. Any remaining
proceeds will go to the UNM Kayak Club to purchase gear, fund future trips, etc. A
4hr "Intro to Kayak" class will be offered on Nov. 14 (Sunday) 8am -
12, for those who want formal instruction, to be able join us on future
trip. The
class is regularly $75, and includes all boats, gear and pool
rental. A special UNM price of $65 will be offered to
current students
and staff. If we get 8 or more students, New Mexico Kayak Instruction
will donate $15/person to the UNM Kayak Club. So, invite your friends,
classmates, roommates and facebook buddies. "Like" this to show your
freinds list the cool things you're up to!
Kelly is friendly and professional and seems to know what he is talking about and an absolutely wonderful teacher. Kelly is very professional, sincere and a dedicated teacher. He worked very hard to teach me, and I was able to roll within 20 minutes of his instruction. Rest of the evening was one roll after another. I hope he can continue to hold more similar clinics on other advanced techniques. Thank you Kelly. Amit.

I had a blast at your intro to kayak class! I've been kayaking for
several years and wished i had taken this class years ago! I learned
many new techniques that i did not even know existed! I have always
been hesitant about white water kayaking but with the tools and
techniques i learned from your class, I have decided to join more classes and brave the white water
class in a few weeks.Thanks for your support and I look forward to taking more classes with you!
