Full Moon Float

FULL MOON FLOAT
This float is part of MCCB’s “Free Guided Paddle Programs” being offered throughout the summer! Pre-registration required.
Many people have gone kayaking, but have you ever gone at night? This unique float is will witness a gorgeous sunset and welcome a Full Strawberry Moon.
Paddlers will enjoy a leisurely float down river and experience night unfold on the water. During this one-of-a-kind, guided float, boats will be festooned with glow sticks so you and your friends can see the river in a new light, while enjoying all the sounds and sensations of the river at night. We will provide all instruction and gear necessary for a fun and safe trip, but there are a few things you may want to bring that make it go even smoother:
  • water bottle
  • snacks
  • water shoes
  • long-sleeved shirt (dress in layers)
  • bug spray
  • towel
  • headlamp
  • dry bag for phone, extra clothes, etc.
Because of the unique conditions of a night float, this event is geared towards adults and older/more experienced paddlers. Spots are limited to 10, so please call/text or email Andy to reserve your place. If you have your own boat and would like to join the float, please contact Andy with your information to be added to the attendee list. Once you have signed up, you will be contacted with the specific float location based on current river conditions. Enjoy a beautiful evening, relax in nature, and let your worries drift into the night.
