Reminder: FREE Introductory Lessons

Hello everyone,

Just a reminder about the FREE Introductory lessons we have available this summer.

Never tried wakeboarding before? Think waterskiing looks fun? Ready to make the jump to slalom skiing? Whatever your ability or comfort level, this summer Gord Cameron and Andrew Ames are offering FREE one-on-one lessons to help you accomplish your goals.

We welcome participants of all ages, including kids and first-timers! We’re targeting those in the developing stages of watersports, but will tailor the lesson to your current skill level. We promise to make it fun and rewarding.

Lessons are 30 minutes long and are running from 9AM – 12PM August 3rd and August 10th.

We still have room on both August 3rd and 10th, so if you’re interested sign up here. It’s completely free.

Sincerely,

Your SLSBC Executive Team
