River of Light: Paddling by the Light of the Moon
Join the Friends of the Winooski River for the River of Light: Paddling by the Light of the Moon on September 6th. Get your friends and family together to start planning your lighting scheme and theme!

Paddlers will meet at the Heineberg Bridge Access (on the Colchester side of the Rt 127 bridge over the Winooski River) at 6:00 PM. Participants will leave their boats and drive their cars to the take out at the Rivers End Marina. There participants will organize self-shuttles to come back to the put in. The goal is to launch at sunset (7:15) and paddle the 2.5 miles to Lake Champlain. All paddlers must wear a properly fitted PFD.

Admission is free, however, a $10 (or more!) donation to help the Friends of the Winooski River protect and restore the watershed is greatly appreciated. Visit the Friends website for more details including maps. https://winooskiriver.org/river-of-light-moonlight-paddle.php
If you have any doubts as to whether you want to participate, check out the videos made by the Burlington Free Press and 7Days at last year's event. Also on the website.
