WE'RE LAUNCHING FROM MANHATTAN AVE. STREET END THIS YEAR.

Skills and drills to pay the bills! All are encouraged to learn or improve upon their strokes on the creek. The destination is the mouth of Newtown Creek, but we'll be working on technique on the way there and at our destination. There will likely be some wakes from boat traffic, but we'll talk about how to position the canoe and your body to keep you dry. We'll watch the sunset from the mouth of the creek, and rate it on a 10-point scale based on our previous sunset experiences.
