Kayak Camp - Day 4


Joey coming into the kayak dock under his own power.

I am amzazed at the progress Joey has made in 4 days of kayak camp with Olympic Outdoor Center. Day 1 he didn't quite get the idea of paddling and now he moves right along under his own power. It was a long paddle today and he got a tow along the way but did much of the trip from Poulsbo to Keyport and back on his own.

He is having a good time, likes the counselors and other kids, has learned about the wildlife in the area and can't wait to go back each day. His confidence and smile grow each day.

One more day of class then Dad comes to pick him up on Saturday and Joey wants to take him kayaking to show him what he's learned. It will be fun Roger!
