Ten Days of whitewater adventure, friendship, leadership, safety, and fun!
Falling Creek Camp is excited to offer this 10-day opportunity, open to a small number of boys ages 10 to 17, who want to paddle some of the best whitewater in the state of Colorado while focusing on safety, leadership, and skill improvement.
The trip is lead by Jez Blanchard, World Cup Freestyle Champion, three time world cup event winner, Australian Rafting Team member, five time National Champion, and Team Jackson Kayak member. He has co-produced films through Skippy Films and has instructed whitewater kayaking in both the USA and Australia for over a decade. Jez has been a Falling Creek counselor for the past several summers.
Two Falling Creek paddling counselors will help lead the trip, in addition to guest appearances by some professional athletes from the Jackson Kayak Team.
Campers will also have lessons in High Definition video camera use as the group produces their own DVD documenting the trip.
