PEDDLE/PADDLE SUMMER CAMP WITH DEVO!
Sign Up Here Starting at March 29th at 10 am
Camp Dates:
June 17-21 9am-5pm
July 8-12 9am-5pm
This is a NEW camp in partnership with Devo combining mountain biking and kayaking with 4CRS! Various camps are offered for campers ages 8-14. In the morning, kids will meet at 4Corners Riversports ready to ride bikes. They will commute via the river path to local trail systems as a team, and ride town singletrack each morning. Coaches will teach the kids to commute safely and practice good etiquette of riding as a team, while also introducing playful skills that’ll help your child become a more confident mountain biker. Each ride will depart and end at 4Corners Riversports, where the kids will be able to leave lunchboxes and return for picnic lunches before preparing for their afternoon on the water.
After lunch, groms will switch out their bikes for paddles and join 4Corners Riversports Paddle School! Youth river skills class is perfect for kids who want to get on the water in all types of crafts, and get an introduction to whitewater skills! This class will cover the basics of reading water, river hydrology, river safety, whitewater swimming, and more. Each day will be a new watercraft and will give the kids the chance to experience all the different ways to enjoy time on the water!
This class is 5 days and 8 hours daily, split between biking and paddling. For the whitewater portion, all the necessary gear, transportation, and instructors are included. Kids must have their own mountain bikes and helmets for the riding portion.
