We’ll meet at our coffee shop, Endless Summer Paddle & Coffee for any pre-activity fuel that is needed. There we will chat about some of the history of the Ohio River and the plan for the paddle. We will also cover some basics of Stand Up Paddle Boarding and size up gear. Next, we’ll head down to the water and begin a group paddle board lesson. We will ensure that everyone feels comfortable standing, turning, and stopping their boards and know what to do if they fall off. Next we will tour the river and depending on water and wind conditions may paddle under our bridges or up towards the water. Skyline views from the water are the best and we are happy to stop for some photo ops! Other things to note Please do not plan on taking any valuables on the water with you, these can be left at the coffee shop or in your car. You will need to sign a waiver prior to participating in the event.

Enjoy sipping lemonade on the porch of an original log cabin as you select from a variety of scents like lavender, orange spice or honey almond to create your own bath product while you learn about the key ingredients to use for your skin type. Then make a soap and a sugar scrub or a bath salt bag that will nourish your skin. Add the finishing touches to make great gifts to give or keep for yourself.
