Military show your identification to get into park for free. First Responders must present a coupon from HOW to enter the park for free. Once you are at the gate ask what pavilion that HOW will be located. We will have a banner up at the pavilion as well to identify that you will be at the right location.
We will have a quick briefing on the equipment and safety features starting at 1:45 and then assist you on getting out onto the water. All kayaks and gear must be back to location by 3:30 pm where you can sit and enjoy some food from the grill along with some beverages.
No experience is required as we will take the time to explain and assist you as much as possible. Kayaks, fishing equipment and safety gear are provided.
