Kennebec Paddlethon
September 4, 2020 - September 5, 2020
Skowhegan Outdoors and Main Street Skowhegan are excited to announce the first annual Kennebec Paddlethon! Join us September 5 for a guided river trip where participants will enjoy the challenge of a Marathon (13 river miles) or Fun Run (6 river miles) paddle, while learning about the past, present and future significance of the Kennebec River and its surrounding land. The paddle will be guided from Madison to Skowhegan by Skowhegan Outdoors Rec Coaches, Emma Corwin and Mara Kavanaugh. In addition to a great day on the water, participants will enjoy “raft up chats” with local historians along the way who will educate on the rich history of and around the Kennebec River. This paddle has options for all paddlers, from first timers to experienced. We hope you will join us!
This is a free event for the community. If you do not have a boat, we have a limited number of canoes available to borrow for the day.
