Ollie Jones

Instructor

Hi, I'm Ollie. I started going to Calleva as a camper when I was 12 and began working for Calleva when I was 16. I teach mainly the kayaking programs as I have been an avid whitewater kayaker since I was 9. I have travelled extensively in my search for good whitewater, landing in parts of Mexico and Canada. To me, the best part of Calleva is watching campers grow from little mischievous kids in kayaks to admirable and accomplished paddlers. Some of these campers have even gone on to work for the Calleva kayak program themselves. This full-circle aspect of Calleva kayaking is something I truly feel proud to be a part of, and it inspires me every day! Fun fact about me: my best friend is my cat.
