SUMMARY:Free Kayak Days
DESCRIPTION:Take a free watercraft ride and enjoy the view from the Scioto River. Demand is expected to be high. First-come\, first-served.  \nLocation: Boat launch under the Main Street bridge\, near Bicentennial Park. \nThese dates are subject to change based on weather and river conditions. \nThe views from the Scioto River are priceless\, but you can experience them for no cost on two days this summer! All experience levels welcome to enjoy a complimentary kayak\, tandem kayaking and SUP rentals. \nWhat to Expect\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe expect the line for kayaks to be long\, based on high demand. Get there early for the best chance of being able to ride. We will start getting folks on the water at 1 pm.\nWe will be using a wristband system. Wristbands will be distributed on a first come first serve basis. Once all wristbands are distributed\, the line will be cut off. Please note that this will likely be soon after 1 pm based on expected demand.\nIf you do not receive a wristband\, you will not be able to ride a kayak.\nSafety is a top priority. All participants must wear a life vest (provided). We ask that you follow all instructions provided by volunteers at the event.\nThere will be lots of other FREE activities to enjoy on the Riverfront including the Scioto Mile Fountain. We recommend wearing or bringing a swimsuit!\n\nRules and Guidelines\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKids must be at least 5 years old to ride in a kayak.\nChildren 12 and under must ride with a parent.\nTandem\, single\, and SUP paddleboards will be available.\n\nTIP: You can bring your own kayak to the Scioto River any time\, but Free Kayak Day provides kayak rentals for FREE.
