Kayak Kids by Alberta Sprint Racing Canoe Association is the best way to introduce your child to kayaking. Your child will learn kayaking skills, connect with nature while building their confidence on the water in a fun and inclusive way. 

 

Safety is our main priority, we provide ASRCA endorsed coaches Certified in First Aid and CPR and with the Canadian National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP) and CanoeKayak Canada (CKC).
