Early Season Update
Several of us attended the pool sessions put on by the Philadelphia Canoe Club at the St Joe's University Pool this winter.
We've all been paddling whitewater a few seasons now and it's time to get that bombproof roll down and breakthrough to the next level!

We're all looking forward to a great season and lots of rolling practice. Ideally, we'll incorporate a few rolls into every outing.
It's a great time to look ahead and set goals. I often find that my future goals arise from past blunders. In August 2008 I paddled the loop in Ohiopyle at the urging of my guide. Well, I wasn't prepared and got a pretty good thrashing. My goal is to return to Ohiopyle late season with a proven roll and paddle the Loop.
At least one paddler has found me through this blog. I hope we paddle together soon. I'm always game for the Lehigh and the creeks when there's rain, but sometimes regular life does get in the way of paddling (sigh).
