Overview

Level 2 is offered to teens that already know how to roll or for "Patrollers" returning for a second week. Under the watchful eye of our top instructors, teens will spend an intense week learning to:

1. Surf waves
2. Perform trick "playboating" moves
3. Run rivers
4. Scout rapids
5. Perform basic rescues

Teens will also begin to understand the importance that leadership can play in the outdoors by helping less experienced Patrollers. We will continue to update our log books and the internet blog with video footage from the week. Camps run from Monday through Friday, from 9am - 3pm each day. All equipment is provided. Lunch should be brought in a waterproof drybag.
