VYPC is a safe, affordable and fun water sports club for youth ages 9 and up. On-water activities are led by qualified coaches and are held on the Gorge Waterway. We run programs throughout the year, with the majority of sessions in April through November. We also offer weekly, half-day camps throughout the summer.   All our programs and camps are weather and daylight dependent, you will be notified if a session has to be cancelled. 

We are a  registered non-profit society dedicated to developing, promoting, and running programs leading to fun, fitness, skill development, and competition in kayaking and canoeing. Our vision is for young people to experience the benefits of a lifetime involvement in paddling.

We are able to accommodate new paddlers at any time and prorate fees accordingly. Please contact our commodore at commodore@vypc.ca for more information.
