National Training Camp

Thank you to Michal Staniszewski for coming out and running a National Camp on the Kananaskis over the last two weeks. It's been a great opportunity for the athletes and coaches to work together and forward all our skills. With the exception of one day, the weather has been phenomenal. We look forward to next year's camp!

Message from Our Sundre Dutch Girl!


Hey guys,

On my vacation in Holland I got to paddle with my favorite Olympic kayaker 'Robert Bouten'.
It was AMAZING! I had alot of fun & the water was crazy. He had a great time too & if he finds the time he wants to come to Canada.
Here are some pictures of Dutch Water Dreams.
