BOAT RENTALS
The City of Two Rivers Parks and Recreation Department intends to offer boats for rent for the event and will provide greater detail as available.
NEWP will again support this City of Two Rivers paddle event, with paddle routes on both the West and East Twin Rivers, through the City of Two Rivers and upstream beyond the urban areas. Veterans Park on the West Twin river will be the launch and land location, with paddles into the downtown area and past Paddlers Park to continue up the East Twin river with a total distance of about six miles. Bring water and snacks to eat on the water. Why do they call it Paddlers Park? We’ll find out.
This event will be hosted by the City of Two Rivers, with NEWP logistical support, as part of an extended paddle activity weekend intended to focus attention on safe water sport activity on Two Rivers’ East and West Twin Rivers and to support their local Friends of the Twin Rivers Watershed group. Look for expanded information on other related activities as this event develops. For more details, see the Two Rivers Paddle Palooza page.
