Kayaking on the James

The 4th & 5th grade group participated in a youth kayaking activity on Sunday, May 2nd with RVA Paddlesports. The activity was tailored to accommodate beginner paddlers and the group learned the basics of controlling a kayak on flatwater and were able to practice their skills on the James River. The group navigated individual inflatable kayaks on a 3-4 mile trek in Class II whitewater on the James River from Pony Pasture to Reedy Creek. The group did an excellent job and had a lot of fun.
