We are currently paddling out of Safari Beach Resort, 5815 Oleander Drive, Osoyoos.  The Osoyoos Lake Paddling Club is a non-profit organization. Our paddling season starts early May and finishes late September-early October, depending on weather.
Dragon boat paddling is easy to learn and a great way to get fit and stay healthy.  The team nature of dragon boating offers a strong social component whether you are looking for competitive or recreational sport. 
Last season we had close to 50 active members, between 35 and 80 years of age. 
​We suggest a commitment of 2-3 paddle days/week.  You decide which days/times work with your schedule.
Thank you to the Holiday Inn for 15 years of tremendous support!

Proud Supporter of Heart & Stroke Foundation

The Big Bike for Heart & Stroke came to Osoyoos on May 9th/18.  Our Big Bike team, in partnership with the United Church Thrift Shop, raised over $6,844!  We were in fact the 3rd highest fundraising team in the entire Okanagan/Kootenay region.  Heartfelt thanks to everyone in the community who supported our campaign, and to our superstar team members.  Riding the Big Bike was a fun way to cap off a highly successful and rewarding fundraising campaign!
 Watch for our youth paddling times in the spring of 2019
