Details:  This workshop is for current or potential trip leaders, instructors, and anyone else wanting to develop greater skill organizing and leading groups on the water.

We will begin on land reviewing best practices for pre-trip planning, pre-launch group management, expectation management, and pre-put-in discussion.

Plan 'A':  Seil Rd to Shepley Rd. with a short light snack time (This trip will include scouting as well as Instructor / Trip Leading)
