Flotilla in Paradise
Details
Join us for a Labor Day float down the river, Margaritaville-themed! 🌺
• Monday September 7th
• Starting point: Lock 60 at 1 pm
• Ending point: Port Providence Trailhead
• BYO float - tube, paddleboard, kayak, etc.
We're kicking things off with a pre-float potluck picnic at Lock 60 starting at 11:00. Come early to inflate and hang out before we launch at 1:00pm. It's also a good time to coordinate rides if needed. After our float we will exit the river at the Port Providence Kayak Launch - an 8 min walk to the Port Providence Trailhead parking lot.
Dressing up is encouraged! Wear your favorite tropical attire and embrace the island life. 🏝️
Who can come? All adults are welcome, whether you're coming solo or with friends. We ask that you do not bring kids so we can keep the group relaxed and focused on making connections. Well-behaved dogs are welcome to join!
What should I bring?
- Tube, kayak, paddleboard, or other float
- Pump if needed to inflate
- Swimwear
- Towel
- Water shoes
- Sunscreen
- Chair or picnic blanket for pre-float picnic
- Whatever snacks/drinks you want
What's the plan if the weather sucks? We keep a close eye on weather and river conditions. Updates will be shared on Meetup and Instagram.
Safety and River Rules: Float Friday is a casual social group that meets in a public park. You are responsible for your own safety while attending. Please be respectful of others using the park and respectful of the river itself. We're all here to enjoy the space and keep it beautiful.
We are not a formal organization - just people getting together to float, relax, and meet new friends.
