TURKEY BASH 2023

August 5th and 6th, 2023

Deadline for clinic registration is Tuesday, July 25th.

Continue improving your skills on the river with us at the Turkey Bash.  There are opportunities for beginner, practiced beginner, intermediate and youth paddlers during this two day clinic in August.  This is also a great opportunity for advanced paddlers to help out by instructing, assisting, or safety boating to build a great community of paddlers.

The clinic’s philosophy is to teach paddlers on water where they feel totally comfortable, with progression to more difficult skills and water after mastery of basic skills has been demonstrated.

Rivers used for the Turkey Bash in the past have been the Middle and Lower Yough, Casselman, Cheat Narrows and even Cheat Canyon.
