About this event

  • 3 hours

The Shoals’ Tennessee RiverTowns program is excited to host a community paddling event at Waterloo’s 2nd Creek on May 18, 2024! Join us for an interpreted tour along 2nd Creek led by MSNHA Director Carrie Crawford where we will watch for wildlife and explore local history on this beginner-friendly paddle experience lasting around two hours and four miles. We will begin and end our paddle at the Waterloo Boat Ramp in Waterloo, AL.

Kayaks, PFDs, paddles, and other necessary equipment are all provided, free of charge. Participants must already know how to swim to participate.

Reserve a kayak - either single- or two-person - when you register (comes with required equipment, including PFD). You are also welcome to bring your own boat (kayaks, canoes, and SUPs are fine) - just select the "I've got my own boat" option when you register.

I f you register and can't attend, please make sure to cancel your reservation. Not doing so takes a spot away from someone else.

Please make sure to check your email ahead of the event. You will receive a confirmation email from Eventbrite, as well as a pre-event reminder with any additional details you may need to know to best enjoy your paddle with us. Any changes to the paddle due to weather will also be communicated via email.

See you outside!
