Itinerary:

Please join me for a morning paddle at Azalea Park.  We will be paddling downstream toward Bull Sluice for approximately 1 hour until we reach the cliffs, and then we will turn around and take approximately 1 hour to come back upstream, exploring a cove around Gold Branch on our way back. There is not much of a current, so beginner paddlers will be fine on this event.  It is the perfect place to get your feet (and paddle!) wet for the first time.
