Elkhorn Paddlers
Welcome
See You on the River
An invitation to join other canoe and Kayak enthusiasts in enjoying the beautiful streams, lakes and rivers of Kentucky and surrounding states. We plan 10-12 “cruises” each year on (mostly) flat-water stretches of Kentucky rivers & streams. Since we’d rather be on the water, there are only 2 scheduled meetings each year (that center around food, camaraderie and a paddle if weather permits). We also use MeetUp! and our own email listserv to plan impromptu, last minute “Creeks Up!” trips to take advantage of good water conditions and get out and paddle. By the standards of many older clubs, the Elkhorn Paddlers would be considered pretty informal...not highly organized, maybe even laid back. We do what we really want to do; we don't over-schedule; and even though we have few meetings, we share a strong fellowship with our members when we meet on the river.
(ĕlk’hôrn păd’ler) n. 1. A person, or group,
interested in promoting “quietwater” stream
cruising, FUN, safety and river etiquette.
