Summer Paddling Programs 2026
Are you ready for a summer of fun on the water? There’s no summer like a Senobe summer!
All 2026 Summer Paddling Programs will run weekdays from Monday, July 6th to Friday, August 24 (8 weeks). Program details and program fees are listed below. General information about the summer program and fee and payment information is also available.
Registration for a Summer Paddling Program covers paddling only and does not include off-water supervision. All children born in 2015 or later must either be registered for ClubCare babysitting in addition to paddling program registration or have a supervising caregiver with them when off of the water. Paddlers may be supervised by a parent/guardian or by a privately arranged caregiver over the age of 13.

General summer program information:
- At the discretion of the coaching staff, a paddler may be placed with a different age group if doing so would be a better match for the paddler’s abilities.
- Paddling practices proceed rain or shine. In the case of extreme weather, such as high winds, or thunder and lighting, on-water programming may be cancelled to ensure paddler safety.
- The practice schedule for each age group will be posted in late spring.
- Paddlers in U10, U12, U14 and U16 will have the opportunity to race in regattas through the summer. Racing is not mandatory but it is an important part of the sport of sprint paddling (and it is one of the most fun parts!). See here for more info on regattas.
- Each paddler must provide their own personal flotation device (PFD).
- The club will be closed on Monday, August 3rd (Natal Day).
- We anticipate operating a modified program during the week of August 24 to 28th due to some staff members attending the Canoe Kayak Canada National Championships in Ottawa.
- Paddlers must be born in 2019 or earler to be eligible for registration in our Summer Programs. We offer a complementary “Kiddie Kayak” session for younger siblings. Kiddie Kayak gives our youngest paddlers an opportunity to go out on the water with an experienced coach. Kiddie Kayak is held Monday to Thursday for one hour. No registration is necessary for Kiddie Kayak.
Fee and payment information:
Sibling Discount: For families with multiple paddlers in the Summer Paddling program, the full price of registration is paid on the registration of the oldest sibling. A 50% discount will apply to the registration of additional siblings. Use Code SenobeSibling2026 when registering. The sibling discount applies to the Summer Program registration but does not apply to the ADCKC membership fee.
ADCKC membership fee: All paddlers are required to be members of the Atlantic Division – Canoe Kayak Canada (ADCKC). ADCKC fees are set by ADCKC and vary by the age of the paddler. See 2026 ADCKC fees here. New for 2026: ADCKC membership fees will be collected by ADCKC through the registration system at the time of registration. ADCKC will also charge a small credit card processing fee to their portion. When registering, please make sure that you pay your ADCKC membership fee first and then continue on with your registration for Senobe club registration.
Payment method: Our registration system requires payment by credit card. Some programs have an option for payments to be split into multiple installments. The ADCKC membership fee must be paid in full at the time of registration.
Refund policy: On or before July 20, 2026, first-time paddlers can request a pro-rated refund of Summer Program fees (and ClubCare babysitting fees, if applicable). Refunds will not be issued for returning paddlers unless the paddler is unable to continue for documented medical reasons.
Boat storage: Most younger paddlers will use club boats. However, if boat storage is required for a privately owned sprint kayak or sprint canoe, a limited amount of boat storage space is available. The cost of boat storage is $90 per year.
