As NBCB is once again in exile, canoe programming will be based out of Manhattan Avenue Street End Park for the season. This trip is a refresher for a few Trip Leaders to get used to launch procedures and refamiliarize with the river -- but we want to bring some much-missed NBCBers along as well! There's room for a few more paddlers, and we can take a few new or beginner canoeists.

Remember to dress for water: noncotton clothes and shoes you can get wet if we do a landing in Astoria.

Please e-mail with any questions.
