If local public facilities are full to capacity, it is worth writing to your municipal council to raise your concerns and lobby for some additional space. All other sports recreation groups already do this  – tennis, pickleball, soccer, hockey, diving etc.

If you think SKABC should do this on behalf of our members, first we’ll need some data – who is full and when do they expect to have space for kayak storage. How many craft do they accommodate. Does it have gear lockers and a change area?

Casual observation suggests to me that folks in smaller communities are much better served with small-scale recreation facilities than we are here in Metro.
