This VERY EASY paddle will depart from the Lowry Park boat Ramp (Just of W. Sligh Ave. in N. Tampa) and go upstream to Rowlette Park before returning to Lowry Park. This short paddle is open to all kayaks (including sit-on-tops) and skill levels (from none to some). We will be able to enjoy seeing a portion of the river that is frequently overlooked, but very interesting – including seeing the Rowlette Park dam. We will meet at the boat ramp at 9:30 for a 10:00 launch and plan to be back not later than 1:30 (if we’re early, some may want to continue for a short distance downstream from Lowry Park). Must wear a life-jacket at all times and stay with the group (we will not be paddling fast !). Must reply if you plan to attend so you can receive directions to the launch site (if you need them) and so you can be notified if plans change.
Paddle Difficulty: Level 0 - Distance 4 miles or less
