EQUIPMENT

 

Using Barrie Canoe and Kayak Club (BCKC) Equipment

 

Use of BCKC equipment is a privilege of membership. Equipment may be used by current members while on course or while participating in an advertised BCKC trip.

Equipment use must be authorized by the Course Instructor or the Trip Leader.  Equipment requirements for Courses are filled ahead of Trip requests. The Equipment Director has the authority to adjudicate and/or deny usage.

  1. To find out whether a boat is available, check the reservation book in the boathouse at the Southshore Community Centre (SSCC) for the date you need. 

  2. If available, write in your request giving membership number, equipment number, destination, trip leader or instructor's name, date you will be taking the equipment out and date you will be returning equipment. 

  3. Equipment must be signed in and out on the dates it is being used.  There is an equipment usage book at the Southshore boathouse for that purpose. Failure to sign equipment in and out, and/or failure to return equipment on the return date will result in loss of privilege.

  4. Please treat equipment with care.  Make sure it is clean and in better condition than when you got it.  Failure to do so will result in loss of privilege.

  5. Report loss or damage to the trip leader or instructor. Fill out an Equipment Damage/Loss Form; also available at the SSCC boathouse.

BCKC equipment may not be taken for personal use under any circumstances.
