Well, what a great time we had this weekend at this year's National Sea Kayak Symposium.

Thanks to the 120 participants, 20 vendors, dozens of instructors and to my Rapid Media staff for and our host, Paddler Co-op.

Many of you asked how you can connect with the new friends, paddlers, vendors and instructors you met this weekend. And how can you share the memories created, skills learned and good times shared. We've created three places for you to do just that:

• Stay connected on the Adventure Kayak Forum,
• Join the Adventure Katyak Community and the National Sea Kayak Symposium group,
• And post a gallery and share you photos.

We'll use our favourite comments and photos of the event in the next print issue of Adventure Kayak magazine, released August 1st.
