Description

It’s time for the first paddle trip of the season!
Join your Friends for the End of Winter Paddle Trip at Ford Field Park in Dearborn. This event is Saturday, March 21st from 9:30am-12pm. Paddlers have the option to rent a canoe or kayak or bring their own boat. 🛶Please note, fees are due in advance for all attendees.
This is a self return paddle. This event is recommended for experienced paddlers, as paddling in the winter time can be challenging. Our future trips will be a great opportunity for new paddlers to experience the Rouge River!

Let’s celebrate the end of winter and beginning of spring together!
