Beginner Paddling & Water Safety
Event Navigation
Join the St. Louis River Alliance for a hands-on Beginner Paddling & Water Safety event hosted at Boy Scout Landing. All gear will be provided including life jackets, canoes, and paddles. No prior paddle experience necessary. Space is limited and registration is necessary. Register by July 19th at 4 p.m.
This event is made possible through the Great Lake Restoration Initiative and Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, and is intended to reconnect those who have been historically cut off from the river due to various reasons. Priority is given to those living in one of the 18 Minnesota neighborhoods adjacent to the St. Louis River including: Carlton/Thomson, Cloquet/Scanlon, Cody, Denfeld, Fairmont, Fond du Lac Reservation, Fond du Lac Neighborhood, Gary-New Duluth, Irving, Lincoln Park, Morgan Park, Norton Park, Oneota, Riverside, Smithville, and Spirit Valley.
If you are not residing in one of these neighborhoods, you can still register but will be added to a waitlist and notified by July 24th if space is available. There will be a charge of $10.00 per person for persons not residing in one of the 16 neighborhoods listed above.
