Join Kayak New Mexico 501(c)3 for an Adaptive Kayaking
Open House!

Kayak New Mexico 501(c)3 and New Mexico Kayak Instruction, Inc invite kids with cancer, cystic fibrosis and Down's Syndrome for an Open House day of Adaptive Kayaking at Los Altos Pool. 

The goal of this informal Open House event is to expose individuals with physical or developmental disabilities and their families to adaptive kayaking in a familiar, controlled environment, meet our instructors and volunteers, and find out about upcoming opportunities with our corporate sponsor, Hotel Cascada.

To find out about upcoming adaptive kayaking and fundraising events at Hotel Cascada, please join our mailing list so we can keep you informed directly.

Coming soon to Hotel Cascada!


Kayak New Mexico 501(c)3 is pleased to announce corporate sponsorship from The Hotel Cascada.   Imagine being a child or young adult with a physical or developmental disability, learning to kayak in a familiar, controlled (but exciting) environment, like the 'lazy river,' or under the waterfalls, around the spray features or any of the 26 water-play features.  Imagine sliding down the 237ft enclosed waterslide or surfing on the "flow-rider" when they're not kayaking in the pool.  All of that will soon be possible. 

Sign up for our mailing list today to be the first to know about upcoming "adaptive" opportunities at Hotel Cascada.

Kelly has a way of transferring his passion for kayaking to everyone who attends a talk, lesson or paddles with him.  A very patient and conscientious instructor, I always feel safe during lessons on and off the river.  Not only does Kelly teach the sport, he finds ways to help you find your niche and meet others who share the same interest.  In addition, the other instructors he brings along are equally as knowledgeable and helpful.  If you haven't tried kayaking or want to hone your skills, this is a great place to start.

Special thanks to New Mexico Kayak Instruction and Kelly Gossett for a great weekend up in Pilar last month for the beginner lesson on the white water. My family had a fantastic time. Pictured is my 12 year old son who is profound deaf paddling the river. Kelly truly is a master kayak instructor that can teach at all levels of ability and provide hours of fun for the whole family.
