Paddle On Lake Washington In Renton - All Levels Welcome!

Come dragon boat with us on Lake Washington. We welcome all levels of experience. Our team is looking to grow and this is a great chance to see what it's all about. We will start off on land showing you the basic paddling techniques, then spend a hour on the water learning to paddle a dragon boat. Drinks and a small snack will be provided after the session. Adverse weather conditions will cancel. Restrooms are available on site.
Latecomers may not be allowed on the boat if they missed the land training and safety briefing - both are important for everyone to have the best experience on the water.

Directions: We meet in the park at the north/lake end of Cedar River Trail Park.
* Use Renton Rowing Center as your GPS destination.
* Make sure it directs you to N 6th St (not N 8th St - that will take you into Boeing parking lots). Ignore the notice that says the park closes at dusk - over the last few years that has not happened.
* You'll go down the roadway in the park that is between the Cedar River (which you won't be able to see), and Boeing. Go right to the end where the road essentially does a u-turn. Many of us park just after the u-turn on the river side. Join us by the picnic table at the u-turn If you see people wearing neon yellow hats, PFDs or carrying paddles, that will be us!
