Open pool sessions for paddlers to practice; participants are responsible for their own gear and safety. Instruction is NOT provided. $20 for pool entry, plus appropriate ACA insurance (details below).
Register for pool sessions on the CCA Events Calendar.
Sign-in starts about 6:45, inside the pool. Enter through steel service doors on the west corner of the building.
Insurance requirements through the American Canoe Association (ACA) have changed considerably, so please read carefully:
* All persons getting in the pool must have completed an ACA insurance waiver online. NO EXCEPTIONS! CCA membership doesn't count. ACA members are not charged for insurance. Non-ACA members must pay $10 for insurance.
* ACA full membership ($40) covers insurance cost for the full season, but participants must fill out an ACA insurance and waiver form online.
* "Event" insurance for ACA is $10 per individual session for non-ACA members.
* Minors (under 18) need their own insurance, either full ACA membership or event insurance and waiver with adult signature.
