CLUB PADDLES REOPEN MARCH 16, 2021
 
 
Public Health Officials in Nanaimo have confirmed that club hosted paddles are permitted as long as we adhere to our Covid-19 Guidelines for Paddling. Therefore, with the recently announced relaxation of some restrictions, the Board of Directors has decided to restart club paddles effective March 16/21.  
All paddlers are reminded to review and adhere to the Covid-19 Paddling Guidelines listed below. It is up to every club member to remain vigilant in upholding the recommended Covid-19 safe practices when participating in club paddles.
 
Nanaimo Paddlers Covid-19 Guidelines – March 16/21
 
  • Paddles should minimize the likelihood of adverse conditions.
  • The number of permitted paddlers is solely at the host’s discretion, but in no event  shall it exceed more than 8, including the host.
