Outdoor Pursuits Kayak School
What: OP Kayak School is a hands-on, interactive non-academic “class” where Wake Forest students are taught to whitewater kayak. No experience is necessary!
Kayak School is for students desiring to explore a new sport or hone existing skills, opposed to just paddling on a regular OP trip. We will have several pool sessions and two weekends full of paddling on multiple rivers increasing in difficulty.
