Guest Update: Delmarva Paddlers Retreat 5-7Oct07
Note: Special Guests List on Delmarva Paddlers Retreat website has
been updated with: Kampe Absalonsen To many Greenland kayaking enthusiasts, Kampe does not need an introduction. He is known as the Senior Competition Judge for the Annual Greenland Kayaking Championship. He is also a vice president of the Qajaq Kattuffiat. He is also the founding member of the Qajaq Illulissat. Originally from Sisimiut, Kamp learned to paddle and hunt at an age of 4. His ancestors have taught him the traditional methods of paddling and hunting which he hopes to transfer to the new generation. During the age where the popularity of kayaking was declining, he and few others diligently saved the practice and reintroduced to the young Greenlanders and foreigners. Professor Marianne Stenbaek Professor at McGill University, Quebec; organized the 2005 "Festival of Greenland" in Washington DC. Professor Stenbaek has research interests in mass media, communications in developing areas, and northern studies. Greg Stamer & Freya Hoffmeister Greg Stamer, President of QAJAQ-USA, and Freya Hoffmeister, Self- Styled G-Style Kayaker & World Traveler will share details on their recent circumnavigation of Iceland. They should have quite a tale to tell having paddled for 33 days, for an average of 66K daily through some challenging water conditions.
