Event Information

Description

A short Mendota paddle on a nice afternoon. Because of the high lake level from the rain, powerboats are required to operate at slow no-wake speeds, making a quiet lake for paddlers. Canoe, Sea kayak, or long ww kayak, as long as you have the proper outing club rating.

We can watch for birds along the lakeshore, and practice torso rotation and other refinements to our paddle strokes.
