Paddle for a Purpose as we paddle the length of the Lower Kentucky River! Each Sunday through October 30, we will paddle a different section of the river, from Frankfort to Carrollton. Each section of the river will include a 4-6 mile paddle on the Kentucky River and riverside discussions with local experts about topics ranging from history to aquatic life. All proceeds from this event go directly to our friends at Woods and Waters Land Trust. More info at www.canoeky.com/paddle-for-a-purpose.


Join us for a guided paddle through the Kentucky River Palisades at Shaker Village, October 8. Find more information here.
