Full Moon paddle on Saturday


 Full Moon Paddle
This Saturday, August 1st,
6:30 pm
Join WPWA for a dusk adventure. What a better way to beat the heat than a calm, evening paddle. We will launch from the WPWA campus onto the Wood River. This wide section of river is great for beginners.  As we paddle out, spot the numerous painted turtles or the frequently sighted Great Blue Herons. Beavers are around at dusk, often gracing us with their stealthy swims or loud tail slaps.
Boats are available to be borrowed, you may reserve them through the registration link.  3 tandem kayaks are also available, great for an adult to share with a child under 11. The registration link will indicate if there are any tandems still available. The group will launch at 7:00/7:15 pm and paddle for over an hour.  
Face coverings and social distancing are required at the launch and take out, and any time people are closer than 6’ apart. You do not have to wear a face covering while paddling, but you need to have something with you at all times for this purpose. Avoid bunching up at the launch site; wait for other paddlers on the water. Do not attend if you are ill. 
Cost is $15 for members, $20 for non-members.  WPWA members at the Trout level or above have free access to kayaks. *But Dragonfly level and non-members will be charged an additional $20 per boat.
If you are a WPWA Otter, Osprey, or Eagle Member, the program is free and you will not be asked for payment when you register online.
