Environmental Traveling Companions


"I am grateful to ETC for getting me off the pavement and into the awe-inspiring Grand Canyon, a place where I could meet myself beyond my wheelchair and the limitation of my disability. Each of us on the trip was forever changed as we paddled through churning rapids, overcame challenges, and made incredible friends."

--Daniel Barnes, Participant

Annual Sea Trek Regatta & ETC Paddle-a-thon & Adventurers' Auction - Saturday, October 18, 2007
The West Coast's largest, most popular, and definitely most fun sea kayak race. There is a class and a course for everyone from Olympic gold-medalists to first time paddlers. The entire local kayak community turns out to churn up the water at the starting line and enjoy a day on the Bay. Following the race, enjoy a delicious barbecue lunch on the beach, then join in the fun of our live auction also held on the beach. Next listen for your name in the Award's Ceremony!
It's the event of the year and all proceeds support ETC's accesible outdoor adventure programs.
