Yeah man, the Atlanta whitewater club is pretty active. You are in a great spot, actually. The hooch is some decent flat, swift water. Check out Atlanta whitewater on Facebook. I know ORGT outdoor rec at ga tech, has open pool sessions quite a bit.
The key is learning to roll, everything else comes after that IMO.

I didn't start paddling until I left Atlanta, so mad. The ocoee is close enough to day trip easily. Ocoee isn't the steepest water around, but it's among the most continuous that doesn't have the danger is the tougher runs.

Cool. Thanks for the info. I live in ATL and I'm just now getting into kayaking. I have a 13' Rec/Day Touring yak but I've just strolled around nearby lakes so far. I'd like to do an overnight trip soon, and from what I've read, Etowah, Broad, and Hooch look to be good options. My eventual plan is to jump into whitewater kayaking as well.
