Paddle canceled

With the weather the way it is forecast at the present time:
http://www.theweathernetwork.com/weather/caon0493

I will NOT be participating in this paddle and I stress that others do NOT either.

Please do not become a statistic, watch from shore

If you do choose to still go out, take note that myself and Learn to Kayak take no responsibility for your actions.

Re: NEW YEARS DAY PADDLE 2012

That is a good call but a bit disapointing

still would like to go for a paddle as I want to try to paddle each month this year!

Another chance to paddle

Several people are going out to watch this Polar Bear Dip ( I am not one of them)

HIGH winds are the reason for the cancellation of the originally planned paddle FYI
