About the event

REVISED NighT paddle on the Erie Canal
Kayakers, canoers, paddle boards of all levels...
Come join as we paddle the Erie Canal after dark!!

THIS IS A SUN DOWN EVENT!!!

Lights and or Lighting is STRONGLY encouraged!! (or buddy up with people that have lights)

Traffic: THIS IS MY BIGGEST CONCERN!
I have arranged my daughters willingness to help for a small $5 donation per head to her college fund. I leave it to you all to figure it out. But she's gonna have her orders I'm all of it.

There's parking at the all launches.
So, suggest...

If you know you're not strong enough to make the full distance, I suggest choosing a take out point along the way. There's no shame in it. It takes a lot of shoulder and butt to travel a few miles in a boat.
I also suggest if you have multiple vehicles coming to this, then use them accordingly. Let's not over fill the last lot of you can juggle yourselves. Please and thank you.
The map I made shows distances.
Mayors Park is about the half way point. It's a small launch but the last chance take out before the long push to the finish. Again, no shame
I'll add a few more pics to explain parking






Rules:
1. -Have a good time and encourage others to join.
2. -Be respectful and responsible for your own stuff and group. Don't disrespect this event and leave trash in the water.
3. -This is a traveled waterway! Boats will be traveling with us. So be smart and think of yourselves as walking on the side of the road
4. -this is a first try at this. there's going to be issues that need ironed out. Please be patient. Please help fellow boosters and buddy up for carpool. Hello make this great
5. -YOU are responsible for your own gear and snacks etc.

I can't wait to see you all
I can't wait to see all your boats
I can't wait for the passers by to see us
