The summer is where it all begins. Whether you are looking for exercise and physical activity, or you want to begin your journey to the Olympics, Cheema, in the summer, is a great place to be.
Our programs are designed to meet the needs of paddlers at all levels within the framework of a sprint-racing club. What does that mean??? That means that while we don't expect everyone to be able to train and compete at a high level, the program is designed to provide the foundation for long-term athlete development.
Cheema is not a day care, although we do provide "day" "care" for our paddlers. Cheema is not a recreational club, although we do have "recreational 2 week camps". Cheema is not a "hang out", although our paddlers love to "hang out" with their friends all day. Cheema asks for commitment but not obsession.
Fun is number 1, Fitness is number 2 and Friendship is number 3. As the kids get older, they can decide if they want to transition into the big leagues!

Cheema Alert
This weekend our Coaches and athletes will resume training at Cheema. Thanks again to the Keevill's and Maskwa for sharing their lakefront during the last six weeks. With the boathouse project moving along on schedule we will be fully operational with a brand new boathouse and renovated Clubhouse to greet the Summer Program. Thanks to our Project Team and all those who donated for making this happen.
