Gorge Small Boat Paddlers

Welcome to all small boat paddlers - including members and non-members of Hood River Outrigger Canoe Club. 
 
This site provides communication for 1&2 person surfski, outrigger canoe paddlers, SUPers & kayak sailors for paddling events on/off the water in the Hood River area.  Whether you are a new paddler, experienced or a want-to-be, join in and start meeting people for great paddling activities.
 
Best use of this site is posting to the message board.  Start a message string with your activity or respond to one with a comment.  Make sure you closely monitor the string and read the comments because plans are very fluid.  Modify your notification settings to make sure you get e-mails the way you want them.  Consider having your email address link to your phone text messenger (For example, 5551234567@mms.att.net)
 
Smart phone mobile access works best http://mobile.teamcowboy.com.  This format make it easier to follow the message string than reading emails. You can respond with comments, but oddly you can't start a new.  You have to go to the full version thru the link at the bottom.
  
You can find  more easily scheduled events on the schedule; however, many events are fairly spontaneous or last minute due to weather, time, changing conditions and personal availability.  Look for these more spontaneous events on the message board. 
 
The Hood River area is home to the most enjoyable people on earth, and surprisingly they all paddle small boats!  Come join us with flat water paddles, downwinders, after work paddles, hatchlaps, boatswaps and paddle-potlucks.  No matter where you live, join us.
