Event Details

Help clean our waterways by kayaking around Bledsoe Creek State Park.!

We'll be on the water for approximately 2 hours. Prepare appropriately for the day's weather by bringing sunscreen, bug spray, water bottles, and life jackets. We will meet at the courtesy dock located on Deer Run Rd.

We have very limited kayaks and life jackets to provide. If you would like to borrow one, you MUST contact Ranger Abby Wiseman at abigail.wiseman@tn.gov. If we run out, please contact Gallatin Kayak Rentals to rent one.
