Happy Summer Solstice,
we have reached the longest day of the year. Time for some summer time fun.

06/22/2026

Happy Father's Day and summer solstice everyone. Today is the longest day of the year.
We have been land locked for the past week due to stormy weather and flooded conditions on the Rock River. Today we had another round of rain which isn't helping the river to drop. Hopefully by this coming weekend we will be able to get back on the water. The good news is summer has just officially started so we still have all summer long to enjoy our waterways.
See everyone soon.

Storms come, Rivers rise but the sun always comes back out and we will be ready to help you continue your adventures.

Happy Monday everyone, we know the weather is hot out and unfortunately our Rock River is at flood stage before it starts dropping later this week. All of our services have been postponed until this weekend when the river is at a safe level.
Friday the levels will be good to start the weekend off for your weekend fun and adventures.

We have canceled all rentals and tours for today due to high winds and incoming storms.

Happy Monday everyone,
Lovely weather if you're a duck. Unfortunately we are closed today due to the rainy conditions.
We'll be back tomorrow Tuesday to help keep you cool form the heat this week and weekend.
Remember to try to reserve your kayaks and time you want to paddle a day or two in advance. We get busy on the weekends and rentals are available from 8am to 6pm.
Thanks

Let the heat kick in,
did you know we do way more then just kayak rentals, lessons and guided kayak tours? We also host many fun kayak events and even kayak races on our waterways and it all starts with this exciting and fun race this Saturday on the Rock River and along the Hennepin Canal.

Crunch time,
The Tri-It Triathlon Adventure Race is this Saturday and we have competitors coming from near and far for this heated race.
Sounds like we'll have great conditions after the Friday night rain ends (if we get any at all) before race start time Saturday morning. Stop out and see all the excitement and fun. Race starts at 10am at the Cleveland Boat Launch before they race down river to Colona where they will hustle to their bikes for a 10 mile ride and finally a 3 mile run to the finish line.
If anyone would like to help volunteer for the Tri-It message me or Shelly Blagden Barreto or just stop by at 9am at Timbrook Field and let us know you'd like to help.
See everyone on Saturday

Happy Wednesday everyone, we been having an awesome week of amazing weather and we've had paddlers all week long stopping by.
Today Marta wanted to take her children out for an adventure and she gave us a call to see if we could help her out.
So we took them out for a fun guided tour down the Rock River.
Thanks Marta for visiting us with your lovely family. We had a blast.

Mary and her office group came up from Missouri for work and wanted to explore our waterways so she contacted us for a fun paddle down the Rock River. With the storms the last few days and this morning we weren't sure if we could get on the water, but the storms stopped just in time for us to make it happen.
Thanks Mary for trusting us to get you on the water safe in between storms. Safe travels back home.
