The dates are

12pm-4pm weather permitting....
If you are a kayaker--that's just great--but-one does not have to know how to kayak to help out!
Here's what we do as volunteers...and -possible ways you can help out...
If you happen to be a kayaker-we need folks to paddle around the embayment and lifeguard in a kayak.
On land....We need folks to sign up paddlers- and set people up with lifejackets....We also need help putting people in boats and pulling kayaks in and out of the river...And we need folks to hand out info sheets. So--if you want to kayak, or just want to be around a fun river fest atmosphere--- this is the right place! Come join us for a few hours-or all day!
And...at the end of the day--- if you are feeling especially athletic-we need folks to paddle the kayaks back to Manhattan! Thanks Everyone!! Sandy
