7.1.25 FW Kayaking Group: Golden Lake

It wasn't the "Golden Dome", but it was a golden evening on Golden Lake. As proof, Fred even wore his golden shirt. But aside from the gold, we all had a really great time paddling Golden Lake, Hogback Lake, and the channel in between.

Canoeists increased their representation to 4 on this paddle: Tadd, Steve … Continue reading Golden Lake 6.30.2020

In spite of cool temps and a brisk wind, we lost less than two paddlers last night, an attrition rate Jay deemed “acceptable”.  Our band of paddlers consisted of a mix of old, new, and “occasional”: Jay, Dan, Steve, Steve, Steve (seems to be a theme here), Mike, and John completed the “regulars” list, while … Continue reading Fort Wayne Kayaking: Golden Lake 5.21.19
