More information
The event will start at the Le Sueur Boat Launch (32564 MN-93, Le Sueur, MN 56058), where staff and Sunny Days Comfort Food’s food truck will be waiting for you! Check-in and drop off your boat with us, then drive to the end of the course in Henderson (Minnesota New Country School Parking lot – 210 Main St, Henderson, MN 56044). There will be a bus there to bring you back to the launch start, so when you are done with the river trip, you will have your car waiting for you.
The first wave of boats will start launching at 9am, the second will start at 10am. Along the way, staff members and volunteers will be posted, some on the river to assist if needed, and others will have snacks and drinks or present an education program if you’re interested! Otherwise, sit back and enjoy a relaxing and fun paddle down the river.
