Default Anyone Interested in Paddleboarding?

My wife and I are new to TV and are avid paddleboarders. Are there any paddleboarders out there who would be interested in forming a club?

For those of you who are unfamiliar with paddleboarding, it is the fastest growing outdoor activity in the U.S. It offers a great way to exercise, as well as a way of connecting with nature. Essentially, you stand on an oversized surfboard and paddle. I have taught many how to paddleboard--from twelve year olds to those in their 60s. It usually takes no more than a half hour to an hour to learn, but once you try it, you'll probably be hooked.

PM me if you would like more info.

Finally got an opportunity to paddleboard on Lake Miona yesterday. It is a beautiful area to paddle, very scenic, lots of shore birds, a few softshell turtles, and not one gator. The wind picked up later in the afternoon and made it a workout, but it was still a lot of fun. Any paddleboarders out there who want to start a club?
