Part of our Wellness on Water (WOW) series, this introductory class is for those who would love to learn to stand up paddle (SUP) but are stumped on how to get started. (Pssst - you don't HAVE to stand, it is possible to sit or kneel!)As a group we'll paddle to a quiet spot on the lake and then sit or recline on our boards for a few stretches and some quiet meditation taking in the sights and sounds of nature. Expect to see turtles, blue herons, kingfishers and possibly bald eagles. You can hear so much more! This program is held outdoors on the water, so please dress accordingly.
Participants will meet at the Griffy Lake Boathouse. For ages 8+. Participants under the age of 12 yrs. must be accompanied by a registered adult.$20/Bloomington residents, $25/out-of-city residents. Price includes paddleboard, paddle, and lifejacket rental.
To make sure we reserve enough paddleboards for this program, we ask that all participants to PLEASE REGISTER a week in advance. You can do so by following the link on this page or by calling Parks & Rec directly at (812)349-3700. Thank you!
