TSRA will again utilize the pool at Tennessee State University for winter pool practice. We will be providing instruction in various paddling related skills on different nights to those interested: Rolling your boat, bracing, strokes, safety, rescues, conditioning, and GAMES! If you aren't interested in instruction, then come and practice your own roll! This will be a GREAT opportunity to make that roll bombproof, sharpen up a brace, or just get your boat wet on a winter evening in a clear, warm pool. We hope to see you there! Dates: February 15, 22, and 29; March 7, 14 ,21, and 28 and April 4, 11, and 25 Times: 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Where: The Tennessee State University Aquatic Center, located next to the main gymnasium of the Howard C. Gentry Athletic Complex. Turn into this facility off of Dr. Walter S. Davis Boulevard. The pool area will be on your right. Parking is allowed along the road by the softball fields or in the main parking lot to your left as you enter the Athletic Complex area. You are allowed to drop your boat off at the door before parking, if you wish. Cost: We are only charging $5.00 per night per person for use of the pool and any instruction you can get. You must be a current TSRA member ($25.00 for a one year membership). In addition, a $5.00 ACA event fee for insurance will be assessed on your first visit only. YOU CAN SIGN UP FOR EVERYTHING AT THE DOOR! For more info contact Jack Lyle at JLYLE@HVUD.COM; 615-394-8024 CELL, OR 615-376-9179 HOME.

CALLING ALL TRIP LEADERS!!
Want to help TSRA, have some fun, and change people's lives? LEAD A TSRA TRIP IN 2012! FREE TRIP LEADER SEMINAR AT REI - JANUARY 18TH, 6:30 TO 8:30.
Come and learn some tips and tricks for running a fun, safe, and successful trip! Learn from seasoned trip leaders about what to do and what NOT to do when you lead a trip. TSRA truly needs new folks leading some trips, so come on out and learn to do this.
You don't have to be Eric Jackson to lead a TSRA trip, although if he calls we won't turn him down. You DO need a moderate amount of skill, a desire to help people, and some common sense (OK, I know this eliminates some of you, but we're willing to overlook that last one.)
If you have a favorite stream, trail, cave, or bike route that you'd like to show to others, please contact me and we'll put it on the 2012 Calendar! I promise you won't be sorry. You'll get a LOT in return! To lead a trip or register for the seminar, contact Jack Lyle: JLYLE@HVUD.COM Cell Phone: 615-394-8024 Home (nights): 615-376-9179 Donate to TSRA !
