GWHSC Official Upstate Event: Lunar Paddle at Saluda Lake Landing
About this Event
Join me for a full moon paddle on the Saluda Lake. Please only mark yourself going once you secure your paddle fee with Saluda Lake Landing AND obtain an Eventbrite ticket.
Check in starts at 7:30 PM. Coming from work, no problem. They have a small cafe to eat at prior to launch. I will be there around 6:15 PM. They will supply S'mores after and ask that you bring your own stick. Paddle begins at 8:00 PM.
With this event you can rent or bring your own paddle board/kayak. If you bring your own, launch fee is $8.00. Rental cost are on the website. YOU must secure your launch fee or rental prior to the event date as they do cap their events and parking is limited.

You also need to sign Saluda Lakes waiver either online or in person before launching from their dock.
