January Polar Bear Jump Off        3rd weekend in January

The year starts off with the Polar Bear Jump Off when costumed participants dive into
Resurrection Bay on the 3rd Saturday in January.  These folks aren't crazy, they have raised
money for The Alaska Chapter of the American Cancer Society.
Seward Sea Kayak Symposium

The Seward Sea Kayak Symposium is an expansion of the Alaska Sea Kayak
Symposium that has offered beginning kayak classes in Alaska for many years.

This year’s event will take place in Seward and start Thursday, May 17 and run through Monday,
May 21, 2007. The Seward Sea Kayak Symposium is a great opportunity for not only beginners, but
intermediate and advanced kayakers to learn, improve and share skills & information. There are a
lot of different activities planned at venues all over Seward and Resurrection Bay including trips to
Fox Island, Aialik Bay, Orca Island, Thumb Cove, Humpy Cove, Kayaker’s Cove, Sunny Cove and
more.

In-water classes will be held at the Seward High School Pool and the Lowell Point State Recreation
Area. Lecture Series classes are scheduled for the 2 conference rooms at the Hotel Edgewater,
Alaska SeaLife Center and The Rae Building. The trade show will be held at the former Legends
Restaurant in downtown Seward.

The website links to the calendar of events as well as information on the Class Series – where
paddlers can improve their techniques and Lecture Series – when experts address various issues
from legal requirements, to viewing marine mammals to how to use a marine radio. A Sponsor List
as well as Resource List and bibliography are also available on-line.

Registration is available on-line at

Although Seward appears to be a sleepy town on the shores of Resurrection Bay, there is
always something happening or about to happen.
