New Friends--Ben Warren-Blog #1

I've been excited for Keeners for a long while now. Now that I am finally here my stoke levels are as high as they have ever been. My name is Ben Warren and I am from Asheville North Carolina and kayak whenever I can. Some of my favorite rivers back home are the Green, Pigeon, Ocoee, and many more. There are kids here who have come from all around the world to create the amazing kayak crew that we have here now (summer 2k17 keeners session 1). Even though it is only day 3 I have already made great friends. While I am not great friends with everybody in the group yet, I plan and hope to be by the end of the session. So far we have only paddled the middle, and we have owned it. We all styled elevator shaft and have been shredding on every wave. I can't wait to see what awaits us on other sections of the Ottawa that we will run in the future.
