Yonkers Paddling and Rowing Club www.yprc.org  invites you to a special
presentation by Dubside.

WHEN:   Thursday, April 10 ,  7pm - 9pm

WHERE:  Beczak Environmental Center, 35 Alexander Street, Yonkers, NY
http://www.beczak.org/contactus.htm

Dubside will preview the latest video he's working on and talk about his
experiences and share his insight on traditional methods in modern day
kayaking.

Come out and enjoy a fun and informal evening!  If you have ever been
interested in kayak rolling, rope gymnastics (Qajaasaarneq) or going to
Greenland, this is not to be missed!  Bonus points if you come able to
pronounce any of the rolls in Greenlandic!

Dubside's skills at competition rolling are among the best in the world, and
his knowledge and talent for Greenland rope gymnastics are unsurpassed
anywhere outside of Greenland.  Dubside competed at the Greenland Kayaking
Championships in 2004 and 2006. Dubside currently has two videos out:
"Greenland Rolling With Dubside" and "Qajaasaarneq- Greenland Rope
Gymnastics", and has been featured in seakayaking videos "This is the Sea
III"  and "Pacific Horizons".  More info at  www.dubside.net

Beczak Environmental Center is located on the shores of the Hudson River,
right next door to YPRC.  Steps away from the Yonkers Metro North stop on
the Hudson Line-  about 1/2 and hour from Grand Central

This is open to the public and all are invited to attend.

A $15 voluntary contribution is being asked in order to offset the cost of
the program.
