PCKC is proud to introduce another year of our program aimed at providing Special Olympics athletes and Para-Athletes the opportunity to learn the sport of canoe/kayak and represent Peterborough, Ontario at paddling events across Canada. This program helps support our clubs mission of being inclusive to all members of our community.

Those who join this program will learn the basics. Beginners will be coached in Touring (recreational) kayaks, and when they are comfortable, will have the option to try Pro (racing) kayaks and surfskis.  Athletes can race in either Pro or Touring Boats.  Double the fun - pairing up with another Special Olympian in a K-2, or with an able athlete or coach in Unified K-2 in a variety of paddling sports and gain confidence on the water. As paddlers progress there will be opportunities to race at regional regattas against other Special Olympics athletes.
