It's that time; you know where to find us, ladies- kids 16 & 13 & under ❤️🖤

Cultas Lake, BC 2023 one of our furthest travel races, but one of the best. Love the crazy rough waters! We always have the most fun

Thank you Nooksack for a fun wknd of racing. We are happy to be living this way of life. Way to go OTCC Crew!

Beautiful morning; have a wonderful day

Our crew enjoyed a wonderful day at the Coupeville Canoe Races. Family time, great racing and nothing but sunshine. It was day of laughter, enjoying being back on the water and healing for our canoe family. So awesome seeing our canoe families and friends and we look forward to the next race. Way to go OTCC 🖤⚡️❤️

Good morning; a great way to start your day

Ocean Thunder participated in the IHS Health Fair yesterday. We had information for youth paddlers and had a plinko game to win prizes! Such fun and thanks for the invite. Thank you Paddlers Gina & Edna for running our game & table

Ocean Thunder Canoe Owner. So proud to see this honor

We would like to wish Happy Congratulations to our paddler Amara Yallup, she is graduating High School today. We want to wish her the best at her next level up, college bound

Our youth, they are our future. Here is 2022 OTCC kids, both Buck & Jr Buck. Woohoo!! Letssss go

We will participating in the School Without Walls again this year. A few our paddlers will volunteering to introduce our war canoe paddling with the NBHS Students and what it's all about. We will be using our cedar canoes and also the Polynesian Oc1 canoes. If we can gain the interest and love for what we do with just a paddler or two, that is what we strive for, to help carry on our cultural sport.

A beautiful, but cold evening on the water

We are super excited for this up and coming season of 2022. Ocean Thunder has been racing nonstop each year since 2006. Paddlers have come and gone, with a core group of paddlers who just love to paddle that keep us on the water. We have always encouraged the youth, they are our future and this year we have a few new paddlers to add to our crew. Happy training and can't wait to see our canoe family and friends

Here we are with a single night. Ocean Thunder is on the water for a 2022 season. We have returning paddlers, both women and youth, we have new paddlers in which they have never paddled. Let us know if you are interested, we welcome all paddlers. Here is Shae, a new paddler who is making it look like she is a natural

Hey OTCC Paddlers. Roll call, reach out to Lauri, Gina or Tyler and watch for info on the upcoming season. It's time

Happy New Year. Let's hope we have a paddle season

This is a positive news piece that we are moving to a bit of normalcy. Hopefully soon we will back to a normal canoe season ❤⚡🖤

How are all you paddlers doing? We are keeping our fingers crossed there will be a season this year or at least be able to be out in the canoe, not so much about racing, but doing what we love and that's being in the canoe ❤🖤

Wishing everyone a Happy New Year & hope to see everyone soon, hoping for a racing season for 2021

It is OTCC's Dale Johnson's Birthday. Happy Birthday to the man of Ocean Thunder, we are ever so grateful for his guidance, teachings, keeping this sport alive in our community ❤⚡🖤

We would like to wish paddler Benja a very Happy Birthday! Have a wonderful day, paddle season is just around the corner

Spotlight Paddler is Michelle Parker. She has paddled off & on for years. When asked what her favorite memory or races...... "I've raced off & on for many years." I love the competition, the camaraderie and keeping the traditional sport alive!
My favorite race has to be the 4man years ago up at Seabird! Me and Lauri were the only two that were game so we teamed up with two other gals and won or another was when JR & I raced in the 45+ double at Swin.... who am I kidding I love them all! But really any race our family can make it to is awesome, winning on Makah days this past year and hearing my kids cheering is the best❤️ Thank you Michelle.
We love having her in our club, she is a tough paddler, a hard worker & so much fun!

2020 is here. Ocean Thunder will be on the water & on the race circuit for this next season. If you have interest, stop by & see us or send us a message. We are also on the lookout for 12 & 13 year olds wishing to give paddling a try, any questions reach out to any of us. 🖤❤⚡
