About this event

Avoid the madness of downtown with a serene trip on the Boardman!

This is a morning trip; it's a wonderful time to enjoy our hometown river.  We will put in at Scheck's Campground, and paddle at a leisurely pace.  Within the first hour, we'll pass through the newly formed river that is now free-flowing, since Brown Bridge Dam was dismantled in 2012. 

If you haven't yet been through that area, you are in for a real treat! 
We will take a short break at Brown Bridge Landing, and then proceed to our takeout will be at Shumsky Road. 

Paddling time should be about 3 - 3.5 hours.  Some of us will probably go out for lunch afterwards.
