Friends of the Rappahannock (FOR) is hosting a sunset paddle on Friday, July 22, 2016. Participants will meet at City Dock, 207 Sophia St. in downtown Fredericksburg at 7:30 p.m., shuttle to Old Mill Park for the launch, and end back at City Dock at about 10 p.m.
Trip leader Michelle McGinley will talk about local ecology, and how the Rappahannock River has influenced American history.
The minimum age is 12 years, and some paddling experience is helpful. Bring snacks, water, bug spray and flashlights. FOR provides kayaks and safety gear. The backup date is the next day.
The cost is $35 per individual, $105 per family of four ($28/$84 for FOR members). Purchase tickets online at Friends of the Rappahannock Events. For more information, call 540-373-3448.
Friends of the Rappahannock is the Fredericksburg-based nonprofit working “to be the voice and active force for a healthy and scenic Rappahannock River.”
