Life throws challenges and every challenge comes with rainbows and lights to conquer it. - Amit Ray One week down, one week to go Although our clubhouse is closed during the 2 week pubic health advisory, we’re glad we’re able to put in new safety protocols so members can access their boats and enjoy time on the water. Stay safe everyone!

Being out on the water is more important than you think! One of our Pacific Reach paddling members recently wrote a blog post for Thin Pig Media on the importance of self care: http://bit.ly/3rdxPPR CORA #SelfCare #happyplace
