All CORA members and friends are invited to join our regular Off-the-Water Video Forum Series.
For Fall Winter, each month we will host either a Town Hall forum or a Coach Panel forum.
Sessions will be held on Saturdays or Sundays at 4:00 pm (Pacific).
Opportunities for questions will be provided in the latter half of the 90-minute session and through the “chat” function. The presentation will be recorded and posted for those with scheduling conflicts.
The CORA Off-the-Water Video Forum Series has resumed this Autumn 2024 with the next up presentation being Canadian Outrigger Hall Of Fame Induction on SUNDAY NOVEMBER 10 ~ 4PM (PACIFIC).
CORA is hosting this online Town Hall presentation for 2024 Hall Of Fame inductees spread across Canada and around the world. Microwave some popcorn, heat up a warm drink, curl up next to the fireplace, and join us this Autumn evening as our Inductees and Guest Speakers share with you some great tales.
This is an opportunity to get to know those individuals who have been recognized this year including Janet Davis, Ron Dickinson, Zoe Norcross-Nu’u, Ron Zander Williams, Laurel Archer, and Bob Stewart who have made significant and exemplary contributions to outrigger canoeing in Canada over their lifetimes as athletes / coaches-builders and as pioneers. Although their histories have been published on the CORA website, their friends and colleagues have personal insights they wish to share.
Guest speakers are being invited and will hopefully include Ian Pipes Bolden (Gibsons Paddling Club), Mike Billy Junior (North Vancouver Canoe Club), Russell Gunner (Club Physio Plus), Jamie Boulding (Strathcona Park Lodge), Amy (Benskin) Leonard (Sea Kayak Guides Alliance BC), Jacinta Sheridan (“Paddlers Without Borders”), Lance Mamiya (Team Pacific Northwest/FreeLance), Lyse Fortin (Comox), Chelsey Brooks Tidmarsh (Sistership Dragon Boat Association), Ashley Barker (Royal Canadian Air Force Search And Rescue), Julio Villareal (Outrigger Canoe Club Cancun), Matt Kelly (Predator Performance Designs), Mike Petryna (Ontario “Hard Rock Miner”), Jim Farintosh (Pickering Dragon Boat Coach), Stephen / Danielle Kala (Mountain Home CC) and several other luminaries.
Guest Speaker Lance Mamiya of PNWORCA, who spoke on behalf of Laurel Archer, has provided a link to the Multimedia Presentation that was shared during the Canadian Outrigger Hall Of Fame Induction Town Hall.

Join the CORA board and guest speaker Kirsty MacMillan as she illustrates elements of mental performance and provides townhall participants with tools and strategies to build a “bullet proof mental game.”
Please join us at 4:00pm Pacific Time on Sunday, April 14, 2024 for the fourth CORA Town Hall of the year when Ronald Chin, CORA President, will provide a presentation on outrigger change race logistics and lead a question and answer session with CORA directors and attendees. We’re doing this session before the CORA Town Hall series takes a pause for the summer racing season. Warm weather change practices are a couple of months away, but if you’re thinking of taking the plunge into a change race this year, join us!
