“Kayak for Kids is an event for everyone, whether beginner or experienced paddler. Create a team with your family, friends or work colleagues and enjoy the challenge of paddling our great harbour while helping Lifestart.” Guy Leech, Former World Ironman Champion and Kayak for Kids Ambassador

What makes Kayak for Kids so great is that everyone can take part whether you are a complete novice or serious kayaker, and the course takes in some of the most beautiful scenery in the world along the northern shore of Sydney Harbour from Blues Point to Clontarf.

The 17.5km course is divided into four stages of approximately 4.5 km, with team transition areas between each stage. There are categories for single, double and team kayakers, with teams being from three to twelve people paddling three person sit-on-top kayaks and life vests provided by AROC Sport.

And after the paddle, join us at the Lifestart annual family picnic at Clontarf with fun, food and entertainment for everyone. New in 2011! Go to www.kayakforkids.com.au to check out the great choices you have in selecting a picnic hamper waiting for you at the end of the paddle. This will save you having to think about packing your own picnic lunch. Picnic hampers must be ordered before 22 March and will not be available on the day so get in early to avoid disappointment.

Help us raise $250,000! You can begin your fundraising by establishing your personalised webpage at www.everydayhero.com.au and get ready for the City to Surf on water by registering now at www.kayakforkids.com.au.
