L4 Swiftwater Rescue Course

Awesome Carolina Canoe Club Members,

I recently had a mild case of Covid 19. Courtesy of the quarantine time I sadly had to reschedule the CCC L4 Swiftwater Rescue Course.

The new dates are September 17th and 18th.

Some of the participants are able to attend the rescheduled dates but not all.  In an effort to help as many CCC members as possible I will be running this 2-day class in a special way and I have already reached out to the rescheduled students.

Day 1 (Sept 17). L3 River Safety and Rescue.  This will allow any member who wants to only attend a L3 RSR to catch the final full club course of the year.

Day 2 (Sept 18): The L4 SWR portion.  In other words if you look at the curriculum this day will focus on the added topics for the L4 SWR.  I will also go a little more in-depth on some of the rigging from the L3 RSR curriculum.

I have set this course up this way to allow some to attend just day 1 in addition to allow some to just attend day 2 or the SWR add on stuff.  The day-2-only option will only be available to anyone who I have taught a L3 RSR and on a case-by-case basis, approved by myself.

These actions are being done because my L4 SWR was the second safety and rescue course to get rescheduled this summer. I want to allow as many as possible to attend a course prior to winter.

If you are interested in just a day 1 (L3 RSR) or day-2-only option please email me for further instructions.  If you are interested in the full 2-day L4 SWR course the registration is open.
