Paddle on the Potomac (Nature Forward)
July 19, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm EDT
$36 – $49
Join us at the Key Bridge Boathouse for a summer paddling trip around Theodore Roosevelt Island. Discover the magic of paddling around DC’s historic 88.5 acre island in the Potomac beneath the boughs of magnificent sycamores, cottonwoods, silver maples, black walnuts, basswoods and river birches.
Witness the blooms of summer wildflowers growing along the shoreline and the thrill of spotting ospreys, bald eagles, herons and egrets, and the noisy kingfisher!
Our leader is the author of Finding Solace at Theodore Roosevelt Island, so she knows this area well. Canoes or kayaks can be rented or you can bring your own. Registration fee does not include boat rental.
