Registration

 

Before you can register for a program, you need to create an account and then register as a club member.

  • For paddlers under the age of 18,  the primary parent / guardian should create an account, and then add all family members that may want to sign up for a program to their account. 

  • For paddlers 18 and over, create your own account, and then add yourself as a family member.

 

Unless registering for a Try-It Day, Open House or Community Group program, all paddlers must register as a Club Member first which includes the paddler insurance for the entire year regardless of how many programs you are registered for (see below for details)

 

 

Basic Tip - most kids will be registered under the YOUTH Canoe Kids / Learn to Paddle / Recreational Programs Category.

 

 

Some basic guidelines for creating an account are listed below. If you need assistance, please call and we can walk you thru the process.
