(Be on the lookout for an email about how to do all of this online or check back at this website next week.  We aren't quite ready yet!)
  • All paddlers will be asked to sign a COVID Risk Acknowledgement Form at their first in-person practice.
  • Practices will be open to vaccinated and unvaccinated paddlers. We will not require reporting of vaccination status.
  • Masks will be required for unvaccinated paddlers and optional for vaccinated paddlers.
  • RSVPs on Team Cowboy will be required to facilitate contact tracing, if necessary.  Current members - Be on the lookout for an invite to a new Team Cowboy team. You must accept the invitation to be able to RSVP to practices.
  • Paddlers will be asked to answer a verbal health screening when they arrive at practice.
  • Boats will be benched at maximum 50% capacity (no more than 10 paddlers in a 20-person boat).
  • Weekend practices will resume (8am Saturdays at SLU, 10am Sundays at Kenmore/Squire's Landing), provided there are enough paddlers RSVP'ed, and a coach and tiller are available.  Weekday practices may be added to the schedule, depending on interest.
