Paddler's Wallet
Please secure a Paddler's Wallet to your body if you are signed up for any water activities. Please attach
it to yourself, but avoid anything around the neck. Think about what would happen if you were unconscious and
needed help. How do you let people know how to proceed?
A paddler's wallet is a small waterproof container. (Click HERE for examples from Amazon. Make sure you have COPIES of the following
items below. Keep in mind that ANYTHING on the water WILL get wet and ALWAYS it is possible to be lost. Water is
a very powerful force of nature. It does not matter how well you try; Mother Nature will always win:
- Expired Driver's License or copy of your Passport (for ID). At least, it should have current mailing
info.
- Medical Insurance Card.
- Emergency Contact Info (list people who should be called to get a medical proxy or least made aware of the
situation.)
- List of medications/medical conditions/allergies
- Spare credit card
- $20 to $60 in cash (emergencies or small bills for the tip)
