Finding your People by Owen Forster

My name is Owen Forster I'm a 13 year old Whitewater kayaker from Colorado. Since I was 8, I've been trying to find friends that paddle and enjoy it just as much as me, but I just couldn't. They weren't in or around Colorado, so I started thinking I was the only one like myself, until I went to keeners. My first day at Keeners I was already seeing t-shirts that said what my t-shirt said. Seeing people just as stoked to get on the water as I was and I knew that I fit in here. Everyday when we woke up we were watching kayaking movies and so stoked to get on the water, talking about all the moves we were going to try and our favorite moves. Even though it's only my third day here I already feel like some of these people are my friends for life. Keeners brought me to my people and now I feel I have a place.
