I loved the Paddle Making class! I would do it again in a minute! Randy and his sister from Tell City Wooden Boats were great. The Tell City area has a lot of history to see. The whole area seems to be outdoorsy. The folks at Paddle Perry where the best at getting this class set up. They are wonderful to work with! Paddles Up!!!

Had the chance of working with this group for their annual Pack A Dam Lock 22' event. As a vendor everything was so well organized and scheduled. There were a large group of volunteers that helped us get to where we needed to be and help with anything we needed. To have a group that does something like this in our small community is so important! I was so happy with my experience vendoring with this group, and we will happily do it anytime we are asked. Thank you Paddle Perry for all you do for our community.

Always a great group of knowledgeable and dependable people while on the water. The individual members along with the website and Facebook page are a wealth of knowledge and I feel that my ability as a kayaker and SUP boarder has greatly increased during my time with this group, and it’s thanks to this group!

I can’t say enough good things about Kelly Hess of Paddle Perry. I recently ordered an ISUP online with absolutely no knowledge of ISUP. My first experience at trying to use it was a disaster! Without any hesitation, Kelly offered to meet with me, check out the ISUP and unbeknownst to me give me a lesson in “SUP 101.” Kelly was extremely helpful and patient with teaching me the very basics about SUP. She was also helpful in recommending additional equipment that I might find useful. After one meeting, Kelly was instrumental in giving me enough confidence to know, “I can do this!” Thanks from the bottom of my ❤️!!
