Love at First Sight
Hi, I’m Jen. I’m the newest team member at DIG Paddlesports in charge of marketing and sales. I live just north of Salt Lake City and I moved down here for the season. A month ago, I was feeling like something in my life was off, but I couldn’t put my finger on it. My good friends, Bill and Michelle Ennis (owners of DIG) kept popping into my head. I decided to reach out. We’ve been wanting to work together for years, but it was just never the right time. My kids were still little, and I couldn’t come down...
We're Open During Ironman on May 7 & Road Closure Info

We simultaneously help our county Search And Rescue Dive Team raise funds for their equipment and training, as they are typically paid to spearhead the water support effort.

We want to respect the family's privacy, but are happy to share details over a phone call or...
Transitions on the Beach(es).
Quail Creek State Park. For much of the year, I live (mostly) somewhere betwixt gravel and sand, shore lap and shop, garage and grotto. I wish there actually WAS a grotto on our lake, but I'll settle for cliffs and coves. Between November and February, we don't spend a tremendous amount of time, on a daily basis, at the park; it's cooling in November, with shortening days. In February we find the coldest water temperatures, but extending hours of sunlight, still with little to no park visitation. I typically retreat into my design skillset and work with a variety of...
