Leadership in the outdoors is founded upon competency, training and judgement. Paddling and other outdoor activities are indeed 'vehicles' for learning, personal growth and achievement. Introducing other people to the exhilaration of whitewater or to the challenges of the outdoors is a unique and satisfying experience for instructors, guides and leaders. Good outdoor leaders are the result of training, personal attributes and professional experience. Paddler Co-op provides you with the means to develop your leadership interests and potential.
