Have you ever been out paddling and seen someone using a paddle that looks like a 2×4? That is a Greenland stick! If you have ever been intrigued with the beauty, grace and effortless motion on how to move across the water this is the place for you. You do not have to own a Greenland stick; we have some available to share. Opportunities abound to understand the design and appreciate the construction and responsiveness of the traditional skin on frame kayak and how they differ from more modern designs.
Our event is held in beautiful Northern Minnesota. It is a small, affordable event and you have the option to sleep in a CASTLE with hot showers. All meals are provided and there is a Minnesota potluck Thursday night. Break out those tater tots. In addition to working on strokes and rolls, you can participate in learning how to throw a harpoon and give it a try on both the Greenland ropes and on the water. You may come to learn how to paddle with a Greenland stick and work on your first roll or maybe a more advanced roll. You will leave as a member of a new and welcoming family.
