Being a paddling club, most of our activities are focused on running a wide range of river types and skills levels from March through October.

In addition to river running, the club also coordinates and provides many other activities and services such as; 

• Social events (eg. Christmas party)
• Safety clinics
• Skills development courses (eg. rodeo)
• Pool sessions
• Providing paddling-related information (video/book sharing, river guides, etc.)

OVKC is also the proud host of the ever-popular Credit River Down River Race, which first started in 1957.

Note: While our membership consists of paddlers with a wide range of skill levels, we do ask that you have the rudiments of a roll (for kayakers) and have attended at least one course before you come on a scheduled trip (for your own safety).  Introductory courses are available through our affiliate, Whitewater Ontario.  Click here to link to www.whitewaterontario.ca
