About this event
Full moon paddle. The Sturgeon Moon! Be on time for optimal shove off. Your Event Organizer will be checking weather conditions and reporting back to registrants. You must have a headlamp in good working condition. Other lights or optimal such as glow sticks found at any "Dollar Store". Be sure to have one or two glow sticks on your PFD and kayak stern.
Put-In:
It's usually bright enough to paddle without a headlamp, but turn that sucker on if a motorboat is heading in your direction. Enjoy the sounds at night.
Pre- or Post-Paddle social as determined by the Trip Organizer. Route below is only a reference.
Hazards -- Shallow water, oysters, and marine traffic. As always, your event organizer will work to avoid hazards. Most importantly, bring water, change of dry non-cotton clothes and snacks.
