 Edit Your Scheduled Trips
You can now edit your trips on the Trip Schedule. Until we get all of the trip leaders
pre-loaded into the bulletin board database, you just need to
 register
with the same e-mail address that you used when you submitted the trip in the first place. If you don't
remember which e-mail address that is, please contact the
webmaster. |

About the Club
Established in 1971, Prairie State Canoeists (PSC) continues to be one of the Midwest's largest clubs with approximately 500
family memberships. Most members live in the Chicagoland area. The club sponsors over 100 trips a year (flat water and whitewater).
Day-trips are common, and multi-day trips may include camping. ACA-certified instructors conduct a series of annual training
trips for club members of all skill levels. The club's major concerns are clean rivers, river access, and improving put-ins
and take-outs on rivers across the upper Midwest. Read more... |
