Although we haven’t been too good at keeping up with the Blog Posts recently, things have been busy behind the scenes here at Umingmaq Paddle Touring Center. The pandemic has been challenging in many ways, but the boom in paddle-sports enthusiasm has kept us on our toes.
We hope that you and yours continue to weather the storms, which continue to seem to swirl through the many facets of our world and lives!
We will be selling our very popular Gram Kajak Greenland paddles at Canoecopia 2022 (March 11-13, 2022 at the Alliant Energy Center in Madison, WI).
I will also be giving a presentation entitled “Wisconsin Backyard Paddle Touring Gems” The talk will focus on places in the Badger State where you can enjoy some beautiful scenery, paddle camp and maybe even have some cool wildlife encounters.
My speaking schedule is as follows:
- Saturday March 12 from 4:30 PM – 5:15 PM in the Algonquin Room
- Sunday, March 13 from 11:30 AM – 12:15 PM in the BWCA Room
Our hours here at the shop this Spring will continue to be by appointment, please reach out if you’d like to talk about some new equipment or just chat about your paddling dreams for the 2022 season. I love talking paddling and gear!
I hope to see you at Canoecopia! And if not there, here at the shop this Spring or Summer.
