What?

An outdoor adventure is closer than you think.

Why travel far when you can experience nature and an urban adventure right in your own backyard? Paddle in the City is brought to you by HERO USA in partnership with the Columbus Recreation and Parks department. This inaugural event will be held during the annual Jazz & Rib Fest. Bring a friend and come join us for a fun filled weekend of music, food, and paddling. ACA certified instructors will be on site. Equipment (canoes, paddles, and personal flotation devices) will be provided by HERO USA and their partners.

 

How?

Thanks to the Columbus Recreation and Parks department we have been given the opportunity to share our enthusiasm for outdoor recreation during the annual Jazz & Rib Fest.

Why?

Because believe it or not paddle sports can burn up a lot of energy. You can burn more than 350 calories on a canoeing or kayaking day trip. It’s excellent way to exercise. Remember it is important to bring water and food with you to replenish your energy.
