Clarke Outdoors has a website that many people don't know about
www.clarkeoutdoors.com
most of their business is renting rafts, tubes, and canoes for an easy stretch of river. But some of the customers get hooked and end up getting into whitewater. They have lessons of course, but the most learning happens on Monday nights at the class II section with a little wave, where people of all abilities get together and have casual surfs on the little wave and often cook food on the grill back at the store.
of course they are a retail shop too.
I started a blog for them so things can get updated easily, and the real, genuine, chill side of the culture that surrounds a boat shop can come to the surface. Hopefully they learn how easy a blog is and will be able to take it over so there will be multiple perspectives and news in the near future.
