Introduction to SUPing with Community Youth Program: Tuesday, July 7th (click here to enroll)

  • Green Hill Park 2501 Green Hill Park Road Salem, VA, 24153 United States (map)

Note: This event is exclusively for girls from Community Youth Program.

There is no better place to be on a hot summer day than on a stand-up paddleboard (SUP)!

The Wild Way is offering a relaxed introduction to SUPing on the Roanoke River. Working with American Canoe Association-certified Level 2 SUP Instructor Alex Siple, the girls will learn basic SUP strokes and maneuvers and river safety basics. This event is appropriate for beginners, but there will also be opportunities for experienced SUPers to grow their skills. We will paddle around a calm part of the river near Explore Park, play some fun games, and enjoy a relaxing picnic on the shores.

No paddling experience is necessary, but we do require that participants know how to tread water. This event is open to girls ages 9 to 14.

TRANSPORTATION: Transportation is provided to this event. We will meet at Wasena Park at 9am and return by 3pm.

PAYMENT: This event is FREE for participants.
