Participants will meet at the Coronado Fitness Center trailhead, paddle until sunset, then meet back on the center’s patio for wine and cheese around a fire.

Kayak rentals are limited and will be available to those arriving first.

Tickets can be purchased online through May 5 at http://www. hsvticketsales.com.
