A Special Kayaking Thank-You to RUTABAGA Staff and Students alike. What a GREAT Weekend of Classes!

Wednesday, May 28, 2008

Wisconsin is so beautiful in The Spring. Green EVERYWHERE; People are 100 Percent DONE With WINTER; The Vibe is always Up-beat whenever I go back home! (Yep, I was raised a Cheese-Head, and PROUD of it.) I taught 15-Students over this past 3-Day Weekend. The Weather cooperated; we had a little bit of rain but NO Lightening…It worked out great. There were Novices and Experienced Paddlers, as well as those with Disabilities. They came from as far as Michigan and Illinois to learn how best to move their boats. Personally, the best part for me: “I’ve been given the opportunity to show ALL of them how to Enjoy Life just a little bit more”. Living simply does not get a whole lot better than to be able to do that! Now these students have an entire Season to work on their Kayaking Forward Stroke. Any of these new students, as well as any of my past students, are welcome to send any thoughts or questions to this site. I enjoy getting your feedback! Again, thanks so much to all those that helped get me back to The Mid-West this year. RUTABAGA ROCKS! Can’t wait for NEXT Year! http://www.rutabaga.com
