The Matelót Kayak Club is a Tacoma-area group of paddlers that are active throughout western Washington. Paddle trips, clinics and recreational paddling opportunities contribute to a dynamic club environment, where our only limitations are things we haven't tried yet. Membership is $12/year and open to kayakers, canoeists and standup paddleboarders who are looking for more time on the water.

Polar Bear Paddle coming up


Looking forward to seeing as many people as possible turning out for the 1st
annual Polar Bear Paddle. Jan 1st, 11:00 AM, Owen Beach, Point Defiance Park.
Please bring a canned food donation for St. Leo's Food Bank, and renew your
Matelot membership for 2010, with a chance to win great gear in our swagbag
raffle. ($12/yr.)

The length of the paddle will be dictated by conditions... it will probably be
raining, so plan accordingly. We'll have some coffee and hot drinks available
(and maybe a warming fire, too.) The event will be over by 1:00 PM at the
latest, so not a real big paddling day, either way. It got good exposure in last
week's TNT, so I am hoping that we can start the new year off with a bang. Bring
a friend... see you there.
