Join GTCD Naturalists and Steve Largent, Boardman-Ottaway River expert and former GTCD Boardman River Program Coordinator, for a guided kayak float through the scenic Brown Bridge Quiet Area. Largent is a strong advocate for the preservation and protection of the watershed, having played an instrumental role in countless restoration projects throughout his three-decade-long career with GTCD. As participants connect with the river’s dynamic ecosystem, Largent will share information about restoration projects, the river's history, and the importance of healthy waterways.
