Will there be an official schedule for sign ups? I know several new and newer boaters that have inquired about dates etc. Harry, I'll let them know you're hosting the first one. Should be a good turn out

I haven't received a response from anyone to host the pool sessions. Once I get a volunteer, I will start a list.
If anyone plans to attend the Pool, the only thing you need to do is bring a signup sheet and a baggy for money.

Weather permitting, I hope to attend many of them. Still a little too early to commit to when I can host.

This is a little off topic. Hey, maybe an easy bump.
It sure would be nice to get a wave machine.
This video is a good watch to see the basics of a roll. Granted, the boat dude may have done this a time or two. The moves are all there.
For the club? Go to the 9 minute mark. This looks too cool!

Hello all,
I'm planning on attending the roll session tomorrow night (feb11). This being my first and being new to whitewater I have a few questions.
Would anyone be willing and available to check my outfitting of my boat to make sure it's correct and safe? Anyone willing to spend a few minutes to get me started rolling correctly? Will there be someone available to accept membership dues so I can join the club?
Thank you in advance, Jimmy N.

Jimmy, Harry Netzer is scheduled to host the pool session tomorrow evening. He will accept the money for your membership dues. It will really help if you go to www.wvwa.net/cgi-bin/newmemberapp.pl and complete the form to join the club before you get to the pool. For "Payment Method" select "Check via Mail". After you complete and submit the form, you will see a web page with info about mailing a check. Just ignore that since you will be paying at the pool. Harry can also help, or find someone at the pool to help, check out your outfitting. Just ask for help.

Wes, I didn’t update the calendar. Someone has volunteered for the 25th and the 4th. There are still more dates that need filled.

For the record, pool session was cancelled on 2/25. After everyone had gotten there, paid, and changed the pool supervisor told us they had to close down due to a leak in the boiler room and didn't feel comfortable with us in the pool. We got our refunds and left...just wanted to put this out there since wvwa keeps record and are billed for session as we do them (I believe). Someone may want to check to see if it is fixed for this coming pool session.

I will check when we get a bill to ensure that we aren't billed for 2/25.

My 15yo son has been wanting to attend the pool session, but this week (March 11) is the first chance we've had. It's a little late notice, but is it possible that someone has gear he can borrow at the pool? He's a pretty average size kid.

This Sunday's pool session will be a Demo evening. Ace Gear Shoppe will bring a selection of Kayaks to the pool for everyone to try out. I will bring an extra paddle and some extra equipment in case there are brand new folks.
This Sunday will also be a free, yes free, pool session. If you have any friends or family that want to get into a boat, this is the night to do it.
Lastly, I will host this week, next weekend is Easter and the pool is closed, but we need volunteers for April.
