CANOE: Intermediate: Hallets Cove Rescues

Canoe Rescues at Hallets Cove

Let's paddle up to Hallets Cove and practice some rescues!  We'll go over the basics of how to safely perform a canoe rescue and how to be rescued in the event of a capsize.

NOTE: The water quality in Hallets Cove is high due to its proximity to Long Island Sound and the East River tidal currents.  It also hasn't rained in a few days.

We will be getting wet.  Please come prepared with a bathing suit and an enthusiasm for being in the water and climbing back in your boat!
