Prairie State Canoeists
A Northeast Illinois Canoe and Kayak Club
Date: Saturday, June 20, 2026
Coordinator: Marlene Bertolozzi
Location: Russell Woods Nature Center, Genoa
Skill Level: Beginner
Category: Instruction
Details: It's time to prepare for the paddling season. I am offering a land-based instructional morning covering Intro to Kayaking and River Reading material without the actual on water section. If you are new to the sport, need a refresher or just want to commune with other paddlers, here is a good place to start in comfort. The course is applicable to kayakers, paddleboarders and canoeists. This supplements the club's usual offerings
