Kayak on the lake Tuesday

Hey guys this is Coach Batista and I would like to invite all of you to come play at the lake with me. We can rent Kayaks, Stand Up Paddle and swim : )   I would like to go on Tuesday from 11am to 1pm, and if it's raining on Tuesday than we could do it on Wednesday instead. This spot of the lake is great because it's clean and safe from boats. It's located at the end of Asa Norte. If you drive on the road L2 going North (towards Lago Norte) at the end of L2 you will see the lake, the deck with a playground and kayaks. Should be great fun! It costs R$10 to rent a Kayak for 30 min, and R$20 to rent a SUP for 30 min. They have LOTS of kayaks, but only two SUP at this point. They also have life jackets (mandatory) for everybody to wear while in the water. I think the prices are not bad.You can rent stuff for 30 min or 1 hour, just bring the cash. It's a lot of fun! Also bring a snack to eat, a drink or water bottle,  sunscreen, hat,  umbrella (there's not much shade there), and a camera! 

  Hope to see you there... plan your rides, arrive at 11am, be picked up at 1pm on Tuesday. If the weather is bad check for updates with Coach Batista (www.coachbatista.blogspot.com)  and Mr. Axworthy. Hope to see you there! Coach Batista - coachbatista@gmail.com

Even though he was shooting with a different bow than he is is used to practice at BIS, and at a much further distance (18m) he did really well.
