Join the St. Louis River Alliance for a Community Paddle! Thursday, July 24 from 5:00–8:00 p.m. at Chambers Grove Park (13404 MN-23, Duluth)
Come explore one of the stunning St. Louis River Estuary National Water Trail routes and learn about the Area of Concern cleanup efforts that have made this area a safer and more enjoyable place to recreate. Whether you’re a first-time paddler or a seasoned adventurer, this trip offers a unique opportunity to connect with the river’s breathtaking scenery and vibrant wildlife.
This event is free and open to the public, but space is limited—register early to reserve your spot!
All non-motorized watercraft are welcome (canoes, kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, etc.), and we encourage participants to bring their own gear if they have it. The St. Louis River Alliance will provide 12 canoes, paddles, and personal flotation devices (PFDs) free of charge to the first registered attendees who request equipment.
We’ll kick things off with a brief safety introduction, then head out on the water together as a group.
📝 Registration is required for all participants, even if you’re bringing your own gear. Please register by Wednesday, July 16 to guarantee your spot.
