Blackbird Creek Reserve has been deemed a national treasure, and now is your chance to explore it. And what better way than in a canoe─for free.

Never been canoeing before? That's okay. Canoeing experience is preferred, but it's not required. Naturalists will show you the ropes before shoving off in search of wildlife, and perhaps a little history.

Please wear appropriate clothing for the weather. Lifejackets will be provided, and they are required to be worn. Participants must be at least nine years old to paddle on this trip.

Please register prior to your arrival, because space is limited.
