Fit Dog Paddle
Get out on the water with your pup! This paddling trip is an out and back that will start at Fitzwater Station and continue along the Schuylkill canal towards Route 29 and the lock house, ending back at Fitzwater Station. Pups should already be reasonably comfortable on a kayak, paddle board or canoe as there will be no instruction or training. A single 9 foot sit on top kayak and a single inflatable paddle board, both with a 300lb weight capacity, are available for use upon request and while supplies lasts. Participants can bring their own vessel, or kayaks can be rented at Port Providence Paddle for $44/day for a single or $55/day for a tandem. It is recommended to make reservations in advance if renting. Duration ~2hrs and 3-4miles, or you can shorten as needed. Participation is at your own risk. Human family members welcome! Price: $15 per vessel. Maximum 8 dogs. Jenny will be your guide for the day. (7 spots open) Date: August 23, 2025 Raindate: September 6 (tentative if rentals are still available) Time: 9-11 am Pooches & Paddles
Introducing your dog to kayaking/paddleboarding can be a rewarding experience for both of you, strengthening your bond and providing a new adventure! We will start with introductions to the vessels on land and then aim to get our feet wet in a shallow portion of the Schuylkill River. We will be taking things slow and will stay close to the boat ramp, no long voyages this time around. Plan to get wet and dress accordingly. Participation is at your own risk. Bring plenty of treats, leash and harness, towels, a bowl and fresh water for your dog. Two kayaks, a paddleboard and two human life vests will be available for use. If you have life vests for you or your dog, bring them. You are also welcome to bring your own paddleboard or kayak. There is a portapotty available for use. Location: Lock 60 Recreation Area (Locktender's House, 400 Tow Path Rd, Mont Clare, PA 19453) Duration: 1-1.5hrs Class Size: minimum 2 dogs, max 5 Price: $50 Date: *** Please complete registration form if you haven't completed one previously
