Bottom End
The concept of the FCS is to give dedicated paddlers and excuse to run South when winter gets oppressive!
Also a fine chance to “Tune Up” for the coming season with an enjoyable bunch of instructor type folks in a neat location.
It’s a fun event at low cost at an appropriate time of year!
There are sometimes secret missions
"Mission" sounds so organized and even military. I like the parts that are mostly chaotic hedonism.
A side-mission can be the organization of trips before or after the symposium. If I attend, I will “paddle” my way down the east coast – almost certainly in South Carolina’s Sparkleberry Swamp – and I’ll be staying for a few weeks afterwards in various parts of Florida. Open for anything.
No need to be deterred at all, whatever your skill level. The main way to tell the instructors from the students is that the instructors are generally shorter.
Still time to register
Bad news this morning, from down in PA.
Phil saw his shadow, I’m sorry to say.
Six weeks more of winter, you’ll have to endure.
But shortly thereafter, I’ll offer a cure.
Come join us in Yulee, down Florida way.
Where the sun always shines and canoeists can play.
A canoe party we’ll have along with our classes.
In the evening some folks will likely tip glasses.
A good time will be had by all who come play.
And you’ll learn some new stuff in your classes each day.
So join us in March for some fun in the sun
At the Florida Canoe, Symposium.
