About this event

The Big Canoes are coming! Friends of Lower Haw (FLOHA) is partnering with State Parks to offer a Big Canoes Sunset Paddle on Tuesday, July 8th to paddle and watch the sunset while the moon rises. State Parks will be bringing 2 of their 29-foot Big Canoes.


This Big Canoes trip is suitable for children and adults – a great outing for families! Life vests for children and adults will be provided. All ages are welcome, but young children who are unable to paddle or keep themselves upright will need to be accompanied by a guardian. Guides will be State Parks Interpretation & Education staff and FLOHA volunteers. We will take a leisurely paddle on Robeson Creek to watch the sunset while the moon rises. For questions, contact us at lowerhawevents@gmail.com.


The event is free and open to the public but pre-registration is required since space is limited to 25 participants. Register to reserve your space on a Big Canoe.
