RiverLab: Intermediate Paddle at Ping Tom

A paddle on the Chicago River for canoeists who can handle wind, chop, and boat wakes: the Chicago Park District’s RiverLab program leads an intermediate-level outing from Ping Tom Memorial Park on Saturday morning, October 10, from 10 AM to noon. Riders need to be comfortable steering in a straight line and staying on the right-hand side of the river, where other traffic has the right of way. Participants under 18 must come with an adult. Free, but reserve a spot (no pricing listed in the source).
