--  Report on the NYMCRA sponsored Marathon Kayak Racing Clinic

On June 15th, a NYMCRA sponsored marathon kayak clinic was conducted on the Seneca River in Baldwinsville, NY. The clinic was oriented towards experienced racers with 11 skilled kayakers participating. The instructor was Mike Archambault of Mike Archambault Racing and the Pointe-Claire (Quebec) Kayak Club. Mike's clinic was conducted in three phases - 1. On-shore introduction and training, 2. On-water coaching, 3. On-shore summary and review. The phases created a learning environment that enabled the paddlers to individually benefit from the clinic in a group setting. The feedback from the participants was positive with several paddlers asking when the next clinic will be conducted. A short video of the clinic is posted on "youtube" at Kayak Racing Clinic for those that may be interested.
