SUMMARY:Learn To Paddle | 2026
DESCRIPTION:Learn to Paddle (formerly Learn to Kayak) is a free beginner-friendly paddling workshop designed for adults who want to build confidence on the water and learn the fundamentals of kayaking and paddleboarding. \nParticipants will start with an onshore lesson covering equipment\, water safety\, permits\, and paddling techniques before heading out onto the river with a professional instructor to practice their new skills. Whether you’re completely new to paddling or looking to refresh your skills\, this hands-on class provides a fun and supportive introduction to recreating safely on the water. \nKayaks\, paddleboards\, paddles\, and lifejackets/personal flotation devices (PFDs) will be provided. Participants should come prepared to get in the water\, have fun\, and enjoy a day on the river! \nThis event is open to adults ages 18 and older. \nRegistration is required\, space is limited\, and all participants must complete required waivers before participating on the water. \nThis event is made possible through a partnership between Willamette Riverkeeper\, Oregon State Marine Board\, ENRG Kayaking\, Marion Soil and Water Conservation District\, the City of Keizer\, the City of Salem\, and Marion County. \nLearn to Paddle is part of the Our River program\, a community initiative hosted by the Mid-Willamette Outreach Group that encourages connection to and stewardship of the Willamette River through learning\, recreation\, and community engagement.\n____________________________________________________________________________________________ \nFor questions about this event or if you need special accommodations to participate\, please contact: Stacey Perry\, Environmental Education Coordinator\, City of Keizer at PerryS@KeizerOR.gov or by phone at: 503.856.3526 \nFor registration questions\, please contact: Amy Zimmer\, Communication and Outreach Specialist\, Marion SWCD\, at amy.zimmer@marionswcd.net or by phone at: 503.949.4709
