WOR Nantahala Citizens Slalom
Part 3 of Week of Rivers Wacky Wednesday – Citizen’s Slalom.
Come out and try your hand at Canoe/Kayak Slalom on the course behind the Nantahala Outdoor Center. No race boat? No problem. Paddle what you have. Slalom is a great way to build skills and challenge yourself to make moves and take routes you normally wouldn’t take through a rapid. Members of the Nantahala Racing Club will set the course and be on hand to offer tips. Safety personnel will be on hand to help you if you wreck. Show up around 4:30. First runs at 5:00.
All participants in any Carolina Canoe Club (CCC) trip do so as common adventurers. The CCC or its individual members may coordinate paddling trips but no one is considered leader of a trip. As common adventurers, all participants take the responsibility for making their own decisions including, but not limited to, whether it is safe for them to participate on any particular water body, what equipment they need and use, the routes they may choose to paddle, whether their skill levels and abilities are adequate for the activity or whether climate and water conditions are appropriate for their participation. Participants are exclusively responsible for their own safety.
Individual coordinators for all CCC activities set requirements per their sole discretion. The CCC does not necessarily endorse or approve requirements set by coordinators.
