End of the 2021 season

With the Daylight Savings Time beginning this weekend, we are approaching the end of the 2021 paddling season. Evening practices are done for the year, but we’ll continue Sunday morning paddles as long as conditions allow. As it gets colder, please remember to wear appropriate gear and clothing – no cotton! After November 1, all paddlers are required to wear PFDs. Come paddle while you still can this year!

With the return to paddling OC6s, we’ve had a terrific season with an all-time high number of members and many regular paddlers. Members paddled small craft and OC6s in races far and wide and the club sent a full crew to Ke Aloha’s annual circumnavigation of Manhattan. Cayuga Outrigger also helped organize and run the Cayuga Lake Cup (the renamed SUP Cup) in August, which we hope will become an annual event.

OC6 paddling is back!

Cayuga Outrigger OC6s are back on the lake! Practices begin this Sunday, May 23 and will follow our regular schedule: Tuesday and Thursday evenings, 6pm – 8pm and Sunday mornings, 10am – 12pm (which will change to 9:30am – 11:30am when the weather gets warmer).

Please remember to fill out the Information and Membership and Liability Waiver (and Covid Consent) Forms for 2021 before you come to practice. Links to the forms are in the menu to the right.

See you on the water!

2021 paddling season

Because of the uncertainty of COVID-19, we will begin the season with small craft paddle sessions on Tuesday evenings. Sign up using the link above and/or to the right. We’ve also set up a paddling hotline text chain for spur-of-the-moment paddles. Email the board if you’d like to be added.

We hope to resume paddling OC6s this season, however, so check back for updates!

Cayuga Outrigger and SUP Cayuga are organizing the Cayuga Lake Cup, with SUP, OC1, OC2, and hopefully, OC6 races, later this summer, Aug. 13-15. For more information, go to the CLC website.
