NARROWSBURG, NY — Park rangers from Upper Delaware Scenic & Recreational River will demonstrate proper canoe paddling techniques and safety on Saturday, August 29 at 10:30 a.m. Two park rangers from the National Park Service (NPS) will teach basic paddling techniques as well as ways to stay safe while canoeing on the river. The event will be held at the New York Department of Environmental Conservation river access in Narrowsburg.
If you have always wanted to try canoeing, or would like to brush up on your skills, now is your chance. Paddlers of all skill levels are welcome. Paddling instruction will consist of land-based instruction followed by testing your new found knowledge out in the Narrowsburg Pool. Bring family and friends to have a fun learning experience on the river.
This event is free and open to the public. The NPS will provide the canoes, paddles and life jackets. Participants are asked to bring appropriate gear, including sunscreen, appropriate foot wear, a hat and a change of clothes.
