Category Archives: Thursday Evening Paddles

During the summer months we try to do regular Thursday night paddle outings. Locations vary, but are all in the immediate Phillips area. Bring your friends, meet new friends. This is an easy out and back flat water paddle so anyone with basic paddling skills is welcome (under 16 years of age requires parental supervision). We meet at a Phillips, WI area resort, restaurant, boat landing or park with plans to be on the water by 6:00PM. We paddle at a leisurely pace and, depending on the weather, stay out on the water 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

Bring you own kayak (canoes are also welcome) or kayak rentals are available for a $15.00 fee. This includes paddle and PDF. Call or email us if you need a rental kayak for the evening.

After our paddle join us for food and beverage (your cost) at a resort/restaurant near our paddle. Check the website, follow us on Facebook, or call the store to keep updated as to when/where the next paddle will be.
