Georgiaville Pond Paddle - Join us for an evening paddle on scenic and peaceful Georgiaville Pond Friday, July 19, 6 p.m. The group will put in at the historic Smith-Appleby House and make a 2 mile circuit around the pond. The paddle will pass pine tree covered islands and the town beach, where we'll take a short break and paddlers will have the option of jumping in for a swim. Price: $20/person if you are using one of our boats, $5/person if you are bringing your own boat.
Call or email Erik at the Watershed Council at etalley@wrwc.org or (401) 481-1376 to sign up. Advance sign-up is required so that we can determine how many boats we need and keep the trip from getting too large.
