I feel this conference has always provided a valuable resource of committed colleagues and friends who are willing to share information and skills that reenergize conference participants and strengthen our profession. In the spirit of sharing information and resources, the theme selected for this year's conference is, "WHAT WE LEARN ALONG THE WAY." Once again, through the grass roots effort of AORE members and other presenters, we have the opportunity to develop our knowledge, skills, and relationships. With 58 educational sessions, 4 keynote speakers, 13 pre and post-conference programs, 18 exhibitors, a career center, a climbing competition and campfire jam session, this year's conference is packed with opportunities to learn and grow together. The development and administration of this conference requires the work of many people. I would like to thank those who have worked so hard to make this event possible including: Rick Harwell and the staff at Clemson University for their assistance and guidance; The AORE Board of Directors for their direction and support; All conference presenters for developing quality educational programs; The Student Staff of the Miami University Outdoor Pursuit Center; Professional Staff of the Miami University Outdoor Pursuit Center, including: Lisa Canterbury, Julie Versteeg, Mark Freidline, Nate Bondi, and Paul Stem; The Recreational Sports Center and the Shriver Center Staft.for their assistance and support; Our major corporate media sponsor, Backpacker Magazine, represented by John Viehman and Jonathon Dom; Conference sponsors, the Brunton Company, represented by Jon Cox and Dave Glenn; and the Coleman Company; And, fmally my wife, Carrie and our daughter Megan for bearing with me during this past year. Immerse yourself in the conference experience. Get involved in educational and roundtable discussions. Get active in hands-on sessions and recreational activities. Visit the exhibit hall to learn about new programs and equipment, and develop relationships with the exhibitors who have supported our conference. In addition, take some time to enjoy yourself, socializing with friends or hiking along the trails around campus. This is your conference; let's make the most of it! Looking down the trail, we should begin to make plans to attend next year's conference at Idaho State University. Please lend your support and a hand to Peter Joyce and his staff. Let the journey continue, and discover what you can learn along the way.

To produce the most valued kayak and canoe paddles in the world. To value our reputation for product quality and performance, friendly service, an leadership in our industry. To keep our workplace safe, support opportunities, and respect our employees. To build strong relationships with our customers and vendors. To never compromise our integrity. 2 - www.wernerpaddles.com WERNER.2001-3.1 4/28/01 12:35 AM Page 4 WernerWerner PhilosophyPhilosophy At Werner we believe that over-gripping the paddle shaft is one of the most common problems kayakers face. It causes the hands, arms, and joints to fatigue quickly, and over time may cause tendonitis or carpal tunnel syndrome. Over-gripping may be a subconscious effort to overcome a blade that flutters, shaft torque, or simply because a paddle is not sized properly. A well-designed paddle will allow a kayaker to lightly grip the shaft while pulling the blade through the water. WERNER PADDLES’ advanced design minimizes the gripping effort needed to control a paddle by incorporating special design features to create a smooth and sta- ble stroke. To reduce over-gripping due to blade flutter and shaft torque, Werner incorporates a dihedral power-face and the necessary amount of asymmetry into each blade design. Illustration 1 and 2 on the following page explains further how these design features work together to create a smooth and stable stroke, and reduce the need to over-grip your paddle.
