Paddle With Pride 2025

Join us for a pride parade on the Colorado River! Paddle with Pride is back for the fifth year in the Western Slope so mark your calendar and save the date! Unfortunately PAC is closed this year and we weren’t able to find another rental company to collaborate with us. Colorado Mesa University and GJ Adventures have paddleboard and kayak rentals you can use and if you can’t find a rental don’t hesitate to reach out to us so we can help.

We will be starting at Riverbend Park in Palisade launching at 11:30am and we'll float for about 2 to 3 hours to Corn Lake in Clifton.

Floaters must be prepared to launch from Riverbend Park by 11:30 AM and are responsible for your own transportation from Corn Lake back to Riverbend Park after the float.

---

PFDs REQUIRED. SUPers, we discourage the use of ankle leashes and encourage quick-release leash wear.

Message Shelly Willard with any questions! Depending on river flow the drop off point may change closer to the date so check back for updates! I hope you are all ready to celebrate our commUNITY on the river with us! 🏳️‍🌈
