Paddling with Emily Jackson - Olivia Summerfield

Over the weekend all the girls at Keeners got a chance to paddle with Emily Jackson.  It was awesome.  Not only did we get to paddle with Emily we also got to paddle with Brooke Hess.  It was an amazing opportunity.  I learned so much just from paddling with them for about an hour.  It was also very cool to only paddle with girls.  It is very rare that girls are the majority in kayaking, much less the only people paddling.  I really loved getting to paddle with all girls.  Keeners is awesome because it gives you opportunities that you normally would not get.  I was amazed at good Emily was and how good of a teacher she was.  Within about five minutes she had helped me get up on my bow and hold it and she helped me with me cartwheels.  She also gave me a lot of good tips on surfing and looking around.  I was so glad I got to paddle with her and I hope I get to again.
