NOC vs. Keeners -Hank Goodman

The Nantahala Outdoor Center (NOC) and Keeners are both great camps to learn how to Kayak. The NOC camp is better for younger paddlers that might just be stepping into the world of kayaking. The coaches at NOC are very capable of teaching any kid to roll and the basics of Kayaking. The Keener camp will do that, but also help you expand all of your skills to a deeper level. Keeners is able shape kids into kayakers because of the Ottawa river. The Ottawa gives coaches the opportunity to push kids far out of their comfort zone which expands their comfort zone further and permanently. That combined with top notch advice from world famous kayakers makes for a kick-ass camp!
