Join us at White Pond and learn how to whitewater kayak! Pond sessions will focus on learning paddle strokes, how to wet exit (escape the boat if you flip), and get you comfortable in the boat. If you were at a roll session last winter or the river trip last week, we can practice some rolls!

We'll aim to meet at the boathouse by 10am. There will be limited boat transport available from campus. If we do not have enough cars available to transport boats, we may have to kick off the lowest sign ups. Please do not rent a car for this trip.

What to bring:

• Clothes you are comfortable getting wet.
• Change of clothes
• Whitewater gear: kayak, paddle, spray skirt, PFD, helmet, (and float bags)

Gear rental will be available from MITOC for $12/day.

Gear Rental / Fee

If you are renting whitewater gear from MITOC please pay the gear rental fee upfront. Go to mitoc.mit.edu/pay. Under "Gear Rentals and Purchases" select "White Water Kayak" and pay $12. This fee is non-refundable and will only go towards future whitewater rentals if we have to remove people due to boat transport.

You can also use desk credit or a MITOC fee waiver (aimed at MIT students) to pay for the trip.

We will drop people from the trip who have not paid 24 hours after sign up.
