Description
  • You must have your PFD on and fully fastened to participate in this event.
  • Event start time is in your boat, in the water, and ready to paddle!

We will head upstream to explore the bird nesting and feeding areas in the Great Island and Marvin Island marshes. Depending upon interest, we may also take a trip up the Black Hall River.

IMPORTANT: This is a marsh area, so expect biting insects. Long sleeves and insect repellent are recommended.

Required equipment: PFD, 10-foot length of rope, whistle, headlamp/flashlight (for evening paddles). Be prepared to give your emergency contact number to the host if he or she asks for it.

Please be considerate: be on time and cancel if you aren't able to come.
