Come together with fellow water enthusiasts to celebrate our progress and show your support for the future of the Gunpowder River. Whether by kayak, paddleboard, or boat, let’s make a statement for clean water and healthy ecosystems!
Bring your own gear: kayak, paddleboard, or boat.
Special offer: Ultimate Watersports is providing discounted kayak rentals for just $30 (normally $55) – singles and tandems available. (register and we will send you the information to reserve your boats).
Event Details will be emailed to you three days before the event, but here’s an idea!

10 am - Boats/kayaks leave from Mariner Point Park and other points along the river.
11 am - Meet on the river at the Amtrak bridge boat passage.
11:30 am - Meet on the river at the Point dock (by the big buoy) for a short update on the state of our river and where we hope it goes.
12 pm - Return to Mariner Park for refreshments.
Land Participants: There’s a great overlook with a roof where Fosters Branch meets the Gunpowder, perfect for those joining us from shore.
Volunteers will be on-site (both on land and water) to help direct participants
Mad About Mud SPF 50 performance shirts will be available for $20 on the day of the event, with proceeds supporting Gunpowder Riverkeeper.
Let’s make this an unforgettable day on the river!
