Repeat Paddle Outings

Tuesday Night Paddles on Tonawanda Creek (Erie Canal) - Amherst Veterans Canal Park - Brenon Road (C, Novice) – On every Tuesday beginning May 26, come join us for some paddling fun on the water! This is a great opportunity for all levels of paddlers as well as many different types of kayaks and canoes. Come on out and see old paddling friends or get acquainted with some new friends! We will launch promptly at 6:30 every Tuesday evening (come early) beginning the day after Memorial Day. All paddlers must wear a PFD. Please remember to dress for the water temperature, as well as for the weather. Bring water, and a light so you can be seen if we‘re out after dark. This is a group paddle event, and we will start each week with a short training session and discussion group to get everyone together. adkpaddles.bvh@gmail.com

Monday Morning Paddles (B, Novice) - Outings will be scaled back this year to an average of one per month to coincide with the Monday holidays, and if my work schedule allows, I will add a few more weekend paddle trips on our local waterways. Memorial Day will be the first Niagara River paddle of the season. See newsletter for details - schedule to follow. - Bob VH adkpaddles.bvh@gmail.com
