740 Miles in One Day
740 Miles in One Day - Second Annual!
REGISTER HERE
Quick Reference: NFCT Rivers, Lakes, and Streams
When: July 30, 2011
What: This is a trail-wide event: Paddle 740 Miles in One Day (or a lot more than that!)
Here's how it works:
- On July 30, paddlers at locations along the entire length of our trail will hop into their canoes or kayaks and paddle for a mile, 10 miles, 17.2 miles...whatever length works for you.
Report mileage by sending it in to
740@northernforestcanoetrail.org. Info needed will be
where you paddled and
how many total miles you are reporting for
how many paddlers (e.g., one person could report 100 miles paddled by 10 people on the Connecticut River). Deadline for reporting will be close of business on Monday, August 1.
Interested paddlers should REGISTER so we can set ourselves up for success, and so we know how many of you are out there! We encourage you to gather a group of friends and family (10 people paddling 10 miles = 100 miles, right?) so that all miles paddled are fun miles! We are currently reaching out to retail partners in each state to arrange some locations where you can join a group of fellow paddlers - stay tuned for details!
