This Saturday, November 5 from 11:00am-2:00pm, leaders from Groundwork Anacostia River DC (GWARDC), Georgetown University and Howard University will be taking students kayaking around Roosevelt Island in Washington, DC. GWARDC will provide the kayaks, paddles, PFDs (life vests) and the appropriate training needed for this level of kayaking. Students will spend about 2 hours on the water and lunch will be provided at Jack's Boathouse!
Students who would like to participate in this exciting opportunity should bring warm clothes and/or a change of clothes, footwear that they don’t mind getting a little wet, a personal snack and a water bottle.
To RSVP for the paddling activity, please send an email either to Ms. Fajr Chestnut or Mr. Vaughn Perry. As an incentive, every youth that attends the kayaking trip will receive a CamelBak water bottle and a certificate for a free pair of shoes!
Jack’s Boathouse is located at 3500 K St. NW (drive up M St. to Wisconsin Ave., turn left and go all the way down to K St., turn right and arrive at Jack’s Boathouse, which will be located on the left – underneath the Key Bridge).
Students who are traveling via public transportation can take the Orange Line train towards Vienna and get off at the Rosslyn Metro Station.
