Why did Susan Starbird create
Tales From The Take-Out, and why has it
been retired? Created because many women paddlers have unique
perspectives and barriers to overcome. Such as doubts about skills and strength,
conflicting time demands, and trouble committing to restorative activities, plus
practical considerations. Presentation of this page was my effort to pass on
what women learn through modeling by and for each other. Retired because
there are now so many distinguished women paddlers that they no longer need
special visibility.
I'm grateful to the many women who've
developed me as a boater, including sports psychologist
Ellen Carlton, clinical social worker China Dusk, as well as the many
model-paddlers I've tried to imitate over the years: Barbara, Wanda, Ann,
Cathie, Kit, Jean, Bonnie, Liz, Kitty, Nancy, Carol, Pam, Lynne, Sue, Barbara,
Sue, Kate, Kathy, Dana, Caroline . . . .
