Club Presidents' Comment

Photo of the Month

Our club is all about paddling kayaks; how to get started, how to keep learning, and how to have a good (safe) time on the water.   In the Bay Area, we have the unique privilege of belonging to a kayak club located in the heart of paddling paradise. It's good to see that our members are so well aware of that and are taking advantage of the opportunities that are all around them.  Through mid-year this year, TBSK members have accumulated well over 400 “paddle days” on club-sponsored trips.   We've had a lot of very enjoyable days on the water - in the Gulf (both along our beaches and to nearby islands), in our rivers (both the crystal clear spring-fed rivers and our winding sub-tropical streams with lots of alligator and turtle spotting), and in our bays and estuaries.  If you'd like to see some of the sights from these trips, take a look at the “Photos” and “Trip Reports (Central Florida)” sections of our website www.clubkayak.com/tbsk.

If you haven't been on a club trip recently, September is your chance.  There are nine club trips scheduled this month, not counting the impromptu trips that will likely be announced as the month progresses.  Take advantage of the opportunity to join an experienced club Trip Leader and get to know others who share your enthusiasm for our sport.   Happy Paddling !

Phil
