Last Saturday’s sunset paddle was as it was restorative after a long bout of hot, muggy and rainy weather. For some, it was their first time taking in the expansive views of the Quiet Waters Park location, and for others, it was their first sunset paddle. To start the paddle off, Coach Chris guided us…
