Pleasant Paddlers Program - Full Moon Paddle Tour of Scorpion Bay
Lake Pleasant Regional Park
Come enjoy this repeat of last month's fun full moon paddle tour of Scorpion Bay at Lake Pleasant. This time it is on a Tuesday, for those who do not like the weekends. Look for the "Pleasant Paddlers" signs from the contact station to the gate of the marina. Someone will be at the first Scorpion Bay Marina gate to let you through from 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM (no entry after 5:00 PM), and just follow the road down to the launch site. Bring your own kayak or canoe and a sense of adventure. Add to that a flashlight, some water, your PFD, and enjoy the evening. If you need a kayak, Scorpion Bay Marina has rental kayaks, call them at 928-501-7368 to reserve your kayak. We will be launching not too far from the rental area, so it will be easy to join the group. No registration needed, just show up before 5:00PM. We will cruise the bay and inlets to the west and enjoy the moonshine (not the liquid stuff)! Some of us will enjoy a late dinner at the new Scorpion Bay Marina Dillions afterwards, for those who wish to stick around.
