Our club has tryouts at limited times during the year, and for a limited number of athletes.
Our summer tryouts are currently in progress. We may offer another tryout period in August and September after we return from Nationals.

- We provide all equipment including personal floatation devices. If joining the club, one will need to buy a personal floatation device, get a membership in the American Canoe Association, and later, a paddle.
- All participants MUST be able to swim 100 yards without aid. Our boats are not stable and beginners will tip over at first.
- Our club meets at the public dock found at 1212 Navigator Drive in the Ventura Harbor on the south side of the Portside housing development. We do not have a physical building or sign! There is a free parking lot and two beach volleyball courts at the Portside dock.
