ALL PEDAL AND PADDLE EVENTS ARE NOW FULL. HOWEVER, DUE TO A CANCELLATION THERE ARE TWO SPOTS AVAILABLE ON JUNE 22.
The Schuylkill River Heritage Area has brought back its popular Pedal and Paddle events for 2013, with a total of five dates planned--more than ever before. All will take participants on a round-trip biking/kayaking adventure from Pottstown to Douglassville.
Each Pedal and Paddle will begin with a 4.5 mile bike ride from Pottstown’s Riverfront Park to Historic Morlatton Village in Douglassville, using yellow cruisers from the Bike Pottstown bike share program. Participants will be given a guided tour of Morlatton Village, which includes four 18th century buildings, one of which is the oldest home in Berks County. From there, they take a short bike ride to Douglassville’s Ganshahawny Park where they will eat lunch and receive a brief introduction to kayaking from outfitter Doug Chapman of Take it Outdoors Adventure Group. Then, they will paddle back to Pottstown in kayaks along the Schuylkill River.
Lunch, bikes, kayaks and all kayaking gear will be provided. Cost is $25 per person. All Pedals and Paddles take place on Saturdays from 9 a.m. to about 2 p.m. To register call 484-945-0200; or email ckott@schuylkillriver.org.
