Sunday Paddle - George Washington Canal

About this event

It's the George Washington Canal again on Sunday. We'll meet at the Violette's Lock parking lot at 8:30 in order to run a loop trip with return via the C&O Canal. As always, please let the trip coordinator (BELOW) know if you will be joining.

The morning weather forecast (on Fri) is sketchy - with T-storms predicted by 11:00. Therefore, all participants should check your email by 7:00 am in case I must scrub or change the time or location of the trip. Water level is a goodly 2.9’ on the Little Falls gauge.

PFDs are required for all. Helmets are required for kayakers using spray skirts and highly recommended for all others. Airbags are strongly encouraged for boats without other means of flotation. If you need safety equipment, please advise the trip coordinator in advance.
