Over 100 vendors and manufacturers will be featured at Paddlesport 2015, with special attention being given this year to both kayak fishing and stand-up paddleboarding, two sports which have exploded in popularity in recent years. Families can explore kayaking, canoeing and stand-up paddling, and learn how they can take part in these affordable and exciting activities close to home.
There will be in-show pool demonstrations of kayak rescues, paddling for anglers, yoga basics for stand-up paddleboarders, and “kids in kayaks.” Seminars include essential skills for stand-up paddlers, choosing the perfect paddle, great kayaking opportunities in New Jersey, and padding in the surf zone.
The show takes place March 27 from 12 noon to 9 p.m., March 28 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and March 29 from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The Garden State Expo Center is located at 50 Atrium Drive, Somerset.
