Ages 9-14
RVA Paddlesports aims to engage Richmond’s community with the biggest asset of our backyard: the James River! We are excited to bring all of our offerings into a weeklong summer camp for youth ages 9-14 years old. Pipeline Adventure Camp takes your child on a journey of challenge and self-discovery through kayaking, rafting, rock climbing, stand-up paddle boarding, and swimming. Participants will be aided by staff in expert paddle instruction, knowledge on river ecology, and first aid and safety skills.
(Ages 10-15)
Junior River Guide Camp will challenge your child to excel in whitewater navigation on the Upper and Lower James in inflatable kayaks and rafts. Over the course of the week, participants will develop boat navigation and leadership skills to eventually be able to guide a raft of peers down the Lower James in Richmond, Virginia. Our professional staff will be with them along the way coaching their processes and empowering them to take charge of their boats.
