When we bring in staff to help out with our programs we bring you the very best educators. We understand that one can be competent in a skill but to be competent in teaching that skill is something else. Most of our instructors are teachers of one form or another in their everyday lives.

relivIf you e-mail us or call us you will get a prompt response most of the time, please understand that we are in the field most of the summer and are sometimes in places where there is no cell phone coverage or e-mail access. Your business is important to us and we will return your message as soon as possible. We appreciate your patience if we return your call a little later than you had hoped.

Our Mission Statement

The mission of OLTOA is to create a positive, friendly learning environment where people can learn to be responsible, skilled, and confident outdoors people.

At OLTOA we feel that well trained, skilled outdoor enthusiasts can take of themselves, their friends, customers and families while enjoying a healthy life style and preserving our natural environment.

We hope the skills that are learned with us will be passed on for generations. We want your children to experience the wonders of nature for generations to come. For our natural world to excel and continue to be protected, it must mean something special to our children.

Specializing in Paddle Sports

Bob Myron created OLTOA in 2006 with a focus to take people who are committed to learning to canoe or kayak and help them bring their skills to the next level.

If you are new to the sport of paddling or someone who has been leading trips for years, we can help you improve your skills as a boater or leader.
