Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Email penndbc@gmail.com or use the contact form on penndbc.com, and ask how a new paddler joins the recreational side..

Newcomer welcome

Takes some effort for newcomers (2 out of 5). Why we say this: The site describes a recreational side that paddles about once a month, but it has no first visit, join or FAQ steps, so the way in is not clear..
