Classroom classes (navigation, hypothermia prevention, etc). On-water pond
classes (basic strokes, less basic strokes, rolling, etc). In the ocean
classes (surfing, waves, etc). Frestyle canoe competition. Many many demo
boats, of all kinds, from wood strip canoes to kevlar sea kayaks, to
plastic WW boats. 

I can't predict whether there will be any tandems or not. If you really
want to paddle some, try contacting Wilderness Systems and Necky and put a
bug in their ears. Or call Dale at Sea Kayak Georgia and see if he can
bring one over.
