Join us on Sunday, July 24th from 4 –6:30 PM for a paddling trip to visit with and learn about Lake Waukewan’s loons. In a small group setting, we will observe and interpret loon behaviors and vocalizations, learn the fascinating history of the loons on the lake, and discuss the conservation concerns that have affected them and the management work being done to help them successfully reproduce each year. In order to maintain the small group setting, the trip will be limited to 10 participants.

-Canoe or kayak and paddles. We will meet and launch from the public boat ramp .
-PFD (life jacket) for each person. Participants are required to wear a PFD while on the water
during this trip.
