Welcome to Bend Oregon Outrigger

How do I join the coolest team in Bend?

Our 2008 Season has begun and we're looking for new paddlers. We encourage interested paddlers to join us for a scheduled practice, get in a boat and see if it's for you. New paddlers will meet on Mondays at 5:30pm. We gather on the lawn by Alder Creek, just join the crowd by the boats and introduce yourself. Everyone of all ages are welcome. If you have any further questions don't hesitate to contact us. We look forward to paddling with you!

Upper division practices are on Tuesday and Thursdays at 5:30pm, both men and women together. Lisa Scannell will be doing a Thursday morning practice at 9am for paddlers who have trouble attending the evening practices. Please contact the administrator for more information.

What is Bend Oregon Outrigger?

Bend Oregon Outrigger is a competetive team oriented club in which the atheletes of Central Oregon can enjoy yet another aspect of our beautiful community. We paddle in outrigger canoes on the Deschutes River where we enjoy views of Mount Bachelor and the unique river wildlife. The club includes a Women's and Men's team which have competed up and down the west coast, Hawaii and even BoraBora. We have a simple mantra that sums up who we are:

Never give up, Never make excuses, Always have fun!!

Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or are interested in joining.
