One of the many great ways to experience summertime in Maine is from the seat of a kayak out on the water. On Monday, 6/15, Rob Scribner, a registered Maine Guide and owner of Sunrise Canoe & Kayak, will lead an Intro to Kayaking Workshop at Middle River Park. The workshop will focus on basic kayaking techniques and paddle safety to help get you started, followed by a guided group paddle on the Middle River.

Whether you’re a beginner or looking to brush up on kayaking best practices, you can sign up for this workshop to learn from a pro! This workshop is FREE, but registration is required. Kayak, paddles and PFD will be provided to registered participants.

There are a limited number of spots available, so register early to secure your spot in the workshop!
