Welcome...
Olympic Peninsula Paddlers is a club
for sea kayakers, white water paddlers, rafters, canoeists
and any other paddle powered watercraft. Joining OPP
offers you the opportunity to network with other paddlers
with similar interests, to learn more about paddling
through clinics and workshops, to take advantage of
discounts at local paddling stores*, and to participate
in fun events like club paddles, potlucks, and much
more. OPP's website provides a calendar of events, newsletter
updates, trip reports, a photo gallery, and handy website
links. You can pick up a membership application at one

Interested in CARVING YOUR OWN
GREENLAND PADDLE?...
OPP is now the proud owner of an instructional DVD
that takes you through the steps of carving a Greenland
paddle. (Thank you, Paula for making this happen!) The
DVD, by Matt Johnson, follows the pdf instructions of
Holst that can be downloaded online. So between the
text and the DVD, the instruction is very thorough and
user friendly. Call Deb at 461-3168 or email
her if you want to borrow the DVD.
