Hello! My name is Nicole and I am 17. This is my first time on the Ottawa river. I have always enjoyed being outdoors. I decided to become a Keener because it is exceptional in that it focuses on producing world class kayakers, but also great individuals! My major fear is public speaking and I believe that, in joining this unique program with its weekly public speeches and many occasions to interact with people, I will become a better speaker and will be more at ease when talking to people. So let me tell you a bit about my experience two days into this life changing summer!
Loving the Keeners program so far! All of the staff members are great: friendly, helpful and very encouraging. The kayaking instructors are amazing! On my first day of white water kayaking ever I managed to successfully do the roll! This shows the extent of their expertise on the river. Today was my first time kayaking in white water and I have to say, the feeling you get when you don't capsize is super...! I can't wait to see what other surprises the river has to offer me! As well as the staff being very supportive, the Keeners themselves are all very nice. They're all very different which makes the company unique and enjoyable to be a part of. The surroundings and cozy interiors are the perfect combination for a home far from home!
