At 10am on Saturday, September 7th, the Long Island Sound Study, in cooperation with the Friends of Stewart B. McKinney National Wildlife Refuge, will sponsor a free guided paddling tour down the peaceful waters of the Menunketesuck River, into Gatchen Creek, and through the national wildlife refuge. The round-trip will be approximately 3.5 miles. Boats are NOT provided – you must bring your own kayak or canoe. 

While paddling, participants will be able to explore a salt marsh habitat from the water and observe the abundant wildlife that depends on this unique environment. We’ll have a chance to see osprey, several types of herons, egrets, eagles, terrapins and crabs. Bring binoculars and/or cameras. To sign up click here.
