We had a training camp down in Charlotte, NC at the new US National Whitewater Center.  Although we were told that the weather had been great just before our arrival, we had wind and cold temperatures from Thursday to Monday.  My sister, Molly, finally got to paddle the course for the first time -- she is a National Team member but missed the National Championships last summer.  Scott Foster gregoryfoster_6@msn.com came out again and took a whole heap of photos for us.  Here are my favorites, complete with informative captions.mailto:gregoryfoster_6@msn.com?subject=Charlotte%20WW%20Photosshapeimage_1_link_0
Training in Charlotte, Nov. 2006
A 50-to-be?
No -- I got it!
A full stroke and a big lean
This photo looks just like the home page photo!
An upstream with a big draw on the right
Exit with huge lean
Look but don't touch...clean!
Molly blasting through
Molly exits from an upstream on the right
Molly floats in the eddy thoughtfully
Molly grabs a good right draw
Molly means business with that pull
The eddy monster drags my stern under water!
Why so concerned?
Walking up, trying to think warm thoughts
