Join us for a unique adventure with the WACF Canoe Trips and explore our watershed up close! These trips offer a combination of fun experiences and educational opportunities every Friday morning from June through mid-August. For a nominal donation of $5.00 (cash) per person, you can embark on this journey starting at 7:30 AM and lasting until around noon.
Participants who have completed a WACF canoe trip rave about how enjoyable and informative the experience is. Our dedicated and enthusiastic volunteers guide these outings, engaging with participants in a friendly and approachable manner. They are your local friends and neighbors, deeply invested in the lakes and eager to share their knowledge about the importance of our watershed and how we can protect it.
During the canoe trips, you will receive comprehensive education about wetlands from our knowledgeable canoe leads. As you paddle through spring-fed lakes and wetlands, you’ll appreciate the beauty and significance of our watershed, highlighted by the diverse flora and fauna and the miles of shoreline preserved by WACF.
Your safety is our top priority, so please dress appropriately for the weather and remember to bring life jackets, as they are required by the DNR. WACF will provide the canoes and paddles. If you prefer to use a kayak, you will need to bring your own kayak and paddles.
The donation of $5.00 (cash) per person is required, and reservations are necessary. These trips fill up quickly, so be sure to secure your spot today.
Don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity! Sign up is required. Meeting location is at the Public Ramp Parking Area on Hatchery Road. 9124 E Hatchery Road Syracuse, IN 46567
