Meeting Place: Muldoon Park, 5 Billerica Street, Lowell

Bring: You’ll need to bring your own canoe or other boat, paddles, bailer (if you have one) and PFD for each boater. Bring hats, sunscreen, and water bottles. Work gloves will be provided.

Wear: Clothes and shoes/sandals that can get wet & dirty. A change of clothes in your car is recommended.

Please RSVP so that we can plan accordingly: email (sflint@oars3rivers.org) or call 978-369-3956.
