Members Place Very Well in Kalavida Summer SUP Series

On June 5th, Vernon’s new Kalavida Surf Shop supported the first stand up paddle race on Kalamalka Lake.  The race  started from Kal Beach.  There were categories for newbies and advanced paddlers.   The event  partnered with SPrKL (The Society for the Protection of Kalamalka Lake) to raise awareness for our local lake.

Vernon Paddling Centre members, Bob Woodman, Scott Siemens,  Brad Clements, Guy Paulsen and Jessica Rayner did very well (um…kind of cleaned up in fact).
