SUMMARY:Canoe Camp (for Grownups!)

Get ready to volunteer\, lead trips\, and make your own events. Plus earn badges for new skills! We’ll learn practical skills for exploring our urban waterways: paddling\, radio communication\, knots & line work\, trip planning\, chart reading\, tides & currents\, weather\, water safety\, and event planning. \nThis four-session program runs over two weekend — May 30-31 and June 6-7 (Saturday & Sunday) — from 10am -2pm. Sessions will build on one another\, so participation in all sessions is expected.\n18+ only \nRegistration is a sliding scale fee: \n\nRegular: $200 — this is the full cost of the program for participants\nSupported: $100 — for those unable to pay the full cost\nPay-It-Forward: $300 — for those able to help support the program.\n\nSign up now! New members (at any level) who complete the full program are also eligible to receive a free\, one-season upgrade to Steward-level membership.  \nIf you’d like to attend and even the reduced cost is a hardship\, or if you’d like to sponsor an (adult) canoe camper\, email us.\n \nAbout the Instructor \nDanielle Butler is an avid water and summer camp enthusiast. She has sailed across the Atlantic\, run a creative residency on a historic tugboat in Alaska\, and spent over a decade creating on-water events and boating in New York Harbor. Danielle teaches design at Fordham University and creates elaborate experiences\, both celebratory and educational. \n  \nReviews from last year’s camp\n“Not to set expectations too high — but I can confidently say that Canoe Camp 2025 changed my life! Two weekends of skills education\, canal observation\, paddling\, laughing\, and so much nerding out on everything from barges to bacteria counts\, with some of the coolest\, smartest\, quirkiest\, most fun people you’ll have the pleasure to meet in this city. And then getting to hang out with them for the rest of the summer\, on sunrise\, sunset\, and full moon paddles\, helping New Yorkers get on the water for the first time\, and so much more. Having a home you can go to all summer on the water with great folks really improves life in this city\, even if it is part of a Superfund site. :)” \n\n“I loved the playful camp spirit along with all the amazing skill sharing and diving (not literally!) into the historical and present-day stories of the Gowanus Canal. Making drizzly morning observations of the canal (herons! fish! mussels! condoms!) and watching the tides (we are a coastal town!) made me feel connected in a way I never experienced before. Danielle built a lovely community and inspired us to keep canoeing all season long!”
