Club Presidents' Comment
by Jim Greenhalgh
Photo of the Month
The TBSK Orlando chapter is finally official. After many months of effort by Orlando area sea kayakers and the TBSK Board, the chapter was completed and approved. The chapter president is Michael Shugg, with Sabine Friesem as the vice president. They currently have ten members with four qualified trip leaders. You will see more kayak trips and activities posted around the Orlando area and the east coast. Please take advantage of these new opportunities and help support the new chapter.
As a word of caution we are now beginning the heat season in Florida. High air temperature, high humidity, and low wind can lead to heat stress. High water temperature reduces your ability to cool off. Remember that all four of these conditions combined can create a hazard. Always keep well hydrated and on hot days reduce your energy output.
TBSK will continue to present you with many opportunities over the summer season so get out and enjoy.
