Canoe Camp Needs Your Help!
Canoe Camp Volunteers Needed!
PPCS 4th grade is looking for volunteers to assist with the canoe and paddle carving process this spring. Before the start of canoe camp, volunteers will be working with Dave Paul, expert paddle carver, to learn the method of carving a paddle. Volunteers will be asked to dedicate approximately 5 hours a week in a paddle carving workshop prior to instructing 4th graders on carving their paddles, and an additional two days a week to volunteer and instruct kids at canoe camp after your training has concluded. No experience required! We've collected enough cedar boards for the 4th graders to engage in this experience. Families are welcome to join us in this experience, but we ask that only 4th grade students carve paddles. Please reach out to Savanna or Dave Paul if you are interested or have any questions.
