There are still some spots open for this beginner's canoe clinic tomorrow afternoon (Tues.). The weather is supposed to improve by then, and it's not a problem if it rains a little. Dear DOC: Don't let the spring term end without knowing how to paddle and steer a canoe! Don't be one of the those people who zig-zags down to to Gilman Island, switching sides with your paddle every few stokes, and then struggles to get back to Ledyard. Join me, Rory Gawler and Brian Kunz for a free beginner's clinic on Tuesday afternoon, June 2. We'll meet at Ledyard, get our gear, do some basic instruction, and then go for a paddle. Wear shoes or sandals that are happy getting wet and bring a water bottle, sun protection and a snack. Space is limited, so email me, call, or stop by the office to reserve a space. What: Beginner Canoe Clinic Where: Ledyard Canoe Club When: Tuesday, June 2, 2:00 until 4 or 5. RSVP by contacting Dan Nelson Cheers, Dan Daniel M.
