Hi All- We are starting a Paddling Club here in Yonkers, NY, The Yonkers Paddling & Rowing Club. We are fortunate to have the use of the old Yonkers Canoe Club facility, right on the Hudson River. I know many of the Paddlewise folks are members of established clubs, and I would like to get a little feedback. • What pitfalls, problems, etc. should we be on the lookout for? (We *will* be getting a liability insurance policy) • What about legal release forms? Both for current members and guests. Are they effective? • How complicated do our rules & by-laws have to be? Are there any “boilerplate” rules available for us to adopt? • What programs, etc. have been best recieved by your members? i.e., What works? • Do you ever run events with other groups? We also will be having several out-rigger canoe racers in our club, led by Mike Pidel. Anyone interested in this form of paddling in the NY area please get in touch with us! We will also have a limited amount of boat storage available, and if any paddlers on this list would like more information, please respond to me at: hudsonsb_at_aol.com or hudsonsb_at_yahoo.com We will be having an Open House in September, details dates & times to come.
