Join Wanakena Historical Association (WHA) president Allen Ditch, and SLCCHC director Carlene Bermann for a fun and leisurely paddle past some of Wanakena’s most important historic sites, best viewed from the water. The tour will start on foot at the Wanakena Historical Association for an introduction to Wanakena and its historical significance, particularly to tourism and manufacturing. It is a short walk from the history center to the town beach, where boats will then be launched into the Oswegatchie River. No previous kayaking or canoeing experience needed. Participants will be required to sign a safety waiver.
