点评:This was my 5th time going on a five-day white-water kayak program. Obviously, I really enjoy training with them.
I bring all my own equipment. However, they have everything you would need to rent, to either kayak or canoe. I camp, but there are different options to rent indoor sleeping accommodations. For me, one of the best things, is the meal plan. I always choose that, because after a day one the water, I don't want to camp cook. In every review I say the following, the food MKC serves, is better than many restaurants I've been to. At every meal there's a vegetarian option, which is always excellent. Yes, I occasionally have vegetarian meals.
The instruction is outstanding. The feedback is always positive. You won't ever be criticized. If something didn't work for you, you'll most likely hear, "Why don't you try this instead." And if you go for an unplanned swim in the river, enjoy the ride because you will be quickly rescued, checked if you're OK, and helped back into your boat.
I'll sum up my review up by saying, this is the one big treat I give myself every year. All winter long I relive the rapids I ran, the kayak rolls I made, and yes, the one swim I had this year. I always have one swim. LOL!
Whether you've never paddled before or have experience, I highly recommend giving MKC a try. I've never seen anyone be disappointed.

翻译:这是我第五次参加为期五天的激流皮划艇项目。显然,我非常喜欢和他们一起训练。
我带了所有自己的装备。不过,他们有你需要租的所有东西,无论是皮划艇还是独木舟。我会露营,但也有其他选择可以租到室内住宿。对我来说,最好的事情之一就是他们的餐饮计划。我总是选择餐饮计划,因为在水上待了一天之后,我就不想再在营地做饭了。在每一次评论中,我都会提到MKC提供的食物比我去过的许多餐馆都要好。每顿饭都有素食选择,而且总是很棒。是的,我偶尔也会吃素食。
指导非常出色。反馈总是积极的。你永远不会受到批评。如果某个方法对你不起作用,你很可能会听到“为什么不试试这个呢?”如果你临时决定在河里游泳,那就好好享受吧,因为你很快就会被救起,检查你的安全后,他们会帮你回到船上。
总结一下我的体验,这是我每年给自己最大的奖励。整个冬天,我都在重温我冲过激流、翻滚皮划艇的滋味,当然,还有今年游过的那一次。我每次都会游一次。哈哈!
无论你之前从未划过皮划艇,还是有过经验,我都强烈推荐你去缅因州皮划艇俱乐部 (MKC)。我从未见过有人失望过。
