Youth Kayaking Classes & Camps
FLCC is pleased to offer a wide selection of kayaking courses for youth and children. We provide all equipment including PFDs and all of our classes are led by qualified instructors on the Bedford Channel.
There are two types of classes, on the line to the right of each class you will see a link to register for that class. If a class is noted as offered by FLCC, the link will be an email to the course coordinator. If the class is noted as offered with the Township of Langley (TOL), the link will take you to the online express registration page or if the link does not work for you please call the Walnut Grove Community Centre at 604-882-0408 to register.
Please have your child/youth bring a signed waiver and health form with them to the first class.
